	60:00	Game over.
	59:24	Finally puck is iced and Jaromir Jagr called for slashing. Faceoff deep in Kladno zone. That'll do it . . .

		Teams are back on the ice. Brno starts the period with a brief :16 power play.
		16,317 were here a couple weeks ago to see Lev Praha-Dynamo Moscow and it looks like a bit more of the club seats are filled here. I'm going to guess 16,700.

	26:59	Kometa Brno is going to be two men short now for 1:21 because Jan Surcek has been called for slashing. Angry Kometa fans have thrown toilet paper on the ice.
	26:20	Leos Cermak is given the only penalty out of that scrum for roughing. so Kladno goes on the PP. Faceoff comes outside because the Kladno defence came in low.
