Severstal Cherepovec Team Overview
Andrey Kozyrev's team has slightly stalled in March, with 4 losses in their last 6 matches. The numerous setbacks have prevented the team from Cherepovets from securing a spot in the upper half of the standings. The "Steelmakers" are not particularly effective in away games, having earned 32 points after 32 games (9th result in the West). Severstal's power play also leaves much to be desired, with a 14.1% success rate (10th result in the conference). However, discipline is a strong point for the club, with only 5 minutes and 28 seconds of penalty time per game (best result in the West). The only player in the "Lynxes" injury list is defenseman Yaroslav Dyblenko.
