Head-to-head statistics Dynamo - Avangard Omsk
Dynamo Moscow Team Overview
The Moscow club has slipped in the Western Conference standings this January. Vyacheslav Kozlov's team managed to win only 3 of their last 13 games, falling behind Spartak, CSKA, and Torpedo. Dynamo currently hold 60 points and sit in seventh place, but a single victory could easily propel them into the top 5.
Over the last 15 games, Dynamo have been the worst-performing team in the Western Conference. Even Lada, and the Shanghai Dragons (both with 11 points), and Sochi (12 points) have outpaced the "Blue-Whites," who have only gathered 10 points during this stretch. Another issue for the team is their lack of focus. The Muscovites have lost 5 of their last 9 games, despite leading in those matches.
Defenseman Kirill Gotovets remains on the injured list. However, Mario Patalakha returned to action against Severstal in their last game.
