The “teeth” have long alternated victories with defeats. And today, on October 14, this chain, alas, received a continuation: after the victory over the Shanghai Dregons the Minsk Dynamovites could not resist the game against the leader of the KHL composite table. There were chances for a favorable outcome of the competition.

Dynamo Minsk opened the scoring with the efforts of Rett Gardner (3rd minute). However, Metallurg responded with three goals. Their authors were Mikhail Fedorov (28), Vladimir Tkachev (56) and Ruslan Iskhakov (60, in the empty gate).

The Steelers won their fourth consecutive victory after the suspension of the team's head coach Andrei Razin. The club has made this decision due to serious disagreements between the club and a number of players. The duties of the mentor of Metallurg are performed by Vladimir Vorobyov.
