KHL.ru concludes reviewing the 2021-2022 season for the league’s 24 teams. Today is the champions’ turn: in the summer, CSKA changed head coach, and Sergei Fedorov led the Muscovites to their second Gagarin Cup triumph in his debut season.

KHL.ru continues its review of 2021-2022. At the end of the regular season, Metallurg was the most watchable team in the league. The Steelmen scored more goals and collected more points than any other. In playoff action, Magnitka produced a record-breaking high-scoring series against Avangard, in the course of which it bounced back from two heavy losses to advance all the way to the Gagarin Cup final. But there was no trophy at the end of it — despite leading CSKA 3-1 in that series, Metallurg failed to finish the job.
