While Dinamo missed a big opportunity to qualify for the playoffs, Ak Bars cut the distance towards Avangard Omsk to just one point in their fight for the first place in the East.
With a one-timer from the right wing ALEXANDER KULAKOV brings hope back for the home side when they had pulled their goalie out of his net!
Assisted by Janne Niskala and Cory Murphy.
JARKKO IMMONEN decides the match for Ak Bars! His one-timer from the blue line went past Haugen! He had a clear view but the shot was extremly hard and he had barely time to react!
Assisted by Denis Kulyash and Janne Pesonen.
Out of the blue DENIS GOLUBEV turned the result around in favour of the guests! He received the puck at the blue line, skated a few metres past the left wing and fired the puck into the right top corner! No chance for Haugen!
Assisted by Ilya Nikulin and Evgeny Bodrov.
