Today, October 22, Dynamo Minsk will play away from Sochi. The match of the regular championship of the Kontinental Hockey League will begin at 19:30, reports sb.by.

Before this departure, the wards of Sergei Brylin lost at home to the Magnitogorsk Metallurg (1:3) and Kazan Ak Bars (1:4), as a result of which the “white-blue”, of course, are full of the desire to rehabilitate. Bookmakers consider the favorite Minsk “Dynamo”, which won the “leopards” five last meetings. However, it is not necessary to count on an easy walk, of course. In the course of the current season, the team from the city on the Black Sea coast was able to defeat Kazan Ak Bars twice with the same score 3: 2 and prevailed over Ufa Salavat Yulaev (6: 3), and in a number of lost meetings it caused its rivals a lot of problems.

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 fifth assistant among defenders. In addition, our team still has the best majority in the league (34.5 percent of sales).

Also in this away series, our team will fight with the Nizhny Novgorod Torpedo (October 24). After that, the “teeth” will return home and will prepare to take in “Minsk-Arena” “Barys” from Astana (October 28), Chelyabinsk “Tractor” (October 30) and Moscow “Dynamo” (November 1). Now the wards of Sergey Brylin, having 17 points after 17 meetings, occupy the seventh position in the table of the Western Conference of the KHL.

According to the results of the regular championship 2025/2026, the Minsk squad, we recall, scored 88 points and finished on the second line in the table of the conference “West” after the Yaroslavl “Locomotive”. At the stage of the 1/8 finals, the “teeth” won the series against Moscow teammates with a dry score of 4: 0, but in the quarterfinals, the Minsk Dynamovites lost four times to the Kazan “Ak Bars”. In the overall table of the Kontinental Hockey League, the white-blues took fifth place for the first time in history. Minsk “Dynamo” brought Canadian hockey player Nicolas Obe-Kubel from the list of injured
