10.04.2017

DYNAMO'S BRILLIANT RUN

The Balashikha outfit were ruthless in their thrashing of Zauralye, requiring only four matches to see off their opponents 4:0! However, as a downside, they will now have ten days rest before the final. Dynamo will play VHL regular season winners Torpedo Ust-Kamenogorsk, who defeated Rubin Tyumen 4:2. Interestingly, both of Rubin's victories came on the road - they failed to pick up a home win, form which cost them a final berth.

STRIKERS

Dmitry Markovin (7+9) and Vladislav Efremov (6+10) from Dynamo are both leading the way in points with 16 each. Their nearest challengers are Torpedo's Alexander Shin on 12 (5+7) and Evgeny Rymarev with 10 (7+3). 

MEDALS

Because Torpedo from Kazakhstan made the final, Dynamo Balashikha have already been crowned the Russian championship gold medalists. Zauralye have silver, while Rubin are awarded with bronze. 

HEROES

The best goalkeeper is Dynamo Balashikha's Ivan Bocharov. He picked up a 96.7% saves percentage and a 0.88 goals against average.

Mike Dalhuisen from Torpedo Ust-Kamenogorsk is the top defenseman. He took four points (1+3) and a +7 plus/minus rating.

Torpedo teammate Evgeny Rymarev is the number one forward. He boasts six points (5+1) and a plus/minus rating of +5.

Anton Zolbin of Dynamo is the best VHL rookie, earning three points (1+2) and a +4 plus/minus rating.
