Today, October 18, Dynamo Minsk will play at home with Kazan Ak Bars. The match of the regular championship of the Kontinental Hockey League will begin at 17:10, sb.by reports.

The wards of Sergei Brylin have long alternated defeats with victories. If this trend continues, today the “teeth” will win, as in the last match they could not resist Magnitogorsk “Metallurg” (1: 3). However, Ak Bars, of course, also very much want to take the maximum points in the game.

A special subtext to today’s rivalry is the fact that last season these teams fought each other in the second round of the Gagarin Cup (4: 0 in the series in favor of the team from the capital of the Republic of Tatarstan). And forget that in the “Ak Bars” is now the former captain of the Minsk “Dynamo” Andrey Stas, of course, is also not worth it.

Note that Dynamo Minsk striker Christopher Tierney (3+14 points on the goal plus pass system) currently closes the top 3 in the list of top scorers of the KHL, and Ty Smith (1+11) is the ninth scorer and fourth assistant among defenders. In addition, our team still has the best majority in the league (34 percent of sales).

After the match with Ak Bars, Dynamo Minsk will prepare for the guest games against Sochi (October 22) and Nizhny Novgorod Torpedo (October 24). Now the “white-blue”, having 17 points after 16 meetings, occupy the seventh position in the Western Conference table.
