Semyon, our congratulations to the rescue of a genius when you’re in an acrobatic style of Hasek trap recaptured the puck and saved the team from ninth goal and a record in the history of the defeat .
“This terrible match will be remembered for a long time,” sigh Varlamov. ”Here you are trying to joke, but on my face right now should not be smiling. I remembered the ill-fated Vancouver, when lost in the quarterfinals to Canadians. And today had no right way to play, to surrender the score. The reason? I do not know. We prepared very seriously.They knew that the Americans will play attacking hockey, constantly sketching at the gate. And we all did not go from the start. Missed three, and against the United States as it is extremely difficult to play. And in the third period at all fell apart.”
There was no thought that the airport you will have to wait for a mob of fans to have a heart?
“I would like to meet with them. They are unhappy with the result and waiting for an explanation. It is clear. One has only to apologize to everyone who was waiting for us cool games in this tournament.”
