The results of the season. “Ak Bars”
Kazan “Ak Bars” had the worst season in KHL history, but by the standards of Tatarstan any result other than Gagarin Cup, is considered unsatisfactory. Stenopodobny Vehanen, ageless Morozov, disappointed Hossa, who left the national team and his successor Bilyaletdinov Krikunov in our material.
Problem and its solution
Goals and Objectives “Ak Bars” on the one hand, each season is equally high, on the other hand, after two consecutive champions to claim the team has one cup would be too immodest. Kazan dropped a plank before the season started, none of the officials are not told, and “Ak Bars” slowly began to prepare for the playoffs.
The preparation
Zinetula Bilyaletdinov believes the entire regular season. If Kazan won, the coach praised his boys sparingly and noted deficiencies, if lost, analyzed and eliminated the defects.
Win conference for sped forward, “Vanguard” failed, but the division, and with it the second largest in the East was taken. In the first round of “Ak Bars” hit on “Barys”, which in the playoffs does not give a single match for two years. The people of Kazakhstan were unable to offer resistance, and this time – 0:4.
A quarter-resistance could not have been “Ak Bars”. “Salavat Yulaev” lost only one game. The current champion had to give up the cup. As it turned out later to give Ufimtsev.
Event
Main event in “Ak Bars” and in the Russian hockey has happened in the summer. Zinetula Bilyaletdinov left my baby for the Russian team. Submit Kazan without Bill is now difficult. Still, the team with the author's thought to the smallest detail by the system. Together with Bilyaletdinov left Tatarstan and his assistant, Valery Belov. New head coach of “Ak Bars” was Vladimir Krikunov.

Leader
The “Ak Bars” was and is the leader of each line. Petrie won the regular season Vehanen in 25 games of 43, managed to make two assists, but missed the playoffs washer 1.3, reflecting 95% of the throws and played two games to zero. This is by far the best goalkeeper of the KHL.
Ilya Nikulin scored in 49 matches 41 points, becoming the second in scoring hockey player of the club. Immonen, Kapanen, Zaripov, Hossa and the rest of the defender failed to catch up. Nikulin spent on the ice at an average of 23 minutes, more than anyone else in “Ak Bars”, and finished the season with an efficiency rating of +14.
Alexei Morozov
for 34 years, from time to time are heard the opinion that the captain of “leopard” is aging, but stable statistics of twenty or more goals, as well as fifty or more points to the contrary. Morozov's top scorer again, “Ak Bars”.
Legionnaire
Vehanen general, but Petrie among the best hockey players of the season. Therefore, legionnaires' nomination wins Jarkko Immonen. Finn failed last season, having thrown only 4 washers, but this improved sniper results in more than five times. By 21 th goal in KHL Jarkko added nine World Championships, which ended for him the gold medal.
Disappointment
Sixteen goals and 31 points for virtually any forward any team – level. But Marcela Hosszu invited to the “Ak Bars” is not for the fact that he finished the season in the third echelon. Especially compared to last season his performance has fallen by half.
Maybe Hossa just got into the wrong team. If in Riga, he was the main striking force, “Ak Bars” has become one of the many forwards. And Bilyaletdinov just could not write a Slovak in his team.
“Marcela Hosszu invited to the” Ak Bars “is not for the fact that he finished the season in the third echelon”
Contract Hoss acts for another year, but in Kazan, it seems, will not hold forward. Riga “Dinamo” is not averse to return to his striker, and “Atlas” looking for replacement Sergei Mozyakinu.
Future
Curious. “Ak Bars” and Bilyaletdinov – this one. Now half of this whole no. Vladimir Krikunov can make a good team and a championship experience, but the relationship will develop as a complex man with a complex system, is unknown.
Clear that “Ak Bars” will be the leaders of the KHL. Severe loss of only one – Alexei Emelin, who will come back if you do not get in “Montreal”. Acquisition Kulash, Khomitskaya, Derzinsha, as well as the overall level of available players will not fall down. But will the “Ak Bars” serious claim on a medal?
