Dublin Surin decided the outcome of the sixth game: “Lokomotiv” was on the verge of achieving victory in the Gagarin Cup. Egor Surin saved his best goals for this crucial match, which seems to be the deciding game in the final series. In the first period of the sixth match, the forward from Yaroslavl scored a double goal, effectively ending the suspense and bringing “Lokomotiv” closer to their desired trophy. The players of Ak Bars, despite having an equal number of goals scored, couldn’t withstand the immense psychological pressure. Their nerves failed them at critical moments, and the harsh logic of hockey didn’t wait any longer: every mistake was punished with goals against their own goalposts. Now, “Lokomotiv” just needs to carry through what they’ve started. Meanwhile, Ak Bars will have to find answers to the questions that the very nature of finals makes difficult.
