    Thanks for following, and check back for more KHL action at Eurolivescores.com on Sunday, the last day of the regular season. (20:57:26)
     
    Thanks to 24 saves from Mikael Tellqvist, many of them spectacular in the third period, Dinamo Riga takes 2 points from CSKA Moscow. They are now within 1 point of Spartak Moscow at the bottom of the Western Conference standings. With Lokomotiv's regulation defeat, the single point is enough to wrap up the division title for CSKA, so they will finish 2nd in the Western Conference, and will face either Lev Praha or Dinamo Minsk in the first round.
     
    Game over.
     
    65:01
    Jamie Johnson scores, deking Rastislav Stana to the backhand. ROBERTS BUKARTS will get credit for the winning goal.
     
    Oleg Kvasha's shot hits Tellqvist's glove.

    A goal now by Jamie Johnson will end it.
     
    No goal, misses wide as Tellqvist went down and he tried to go upstair.s
     
    Roberts Bukarts scores for Riga.
     
    Stopped by Stana, he tried to make the goalie commit but he didn't and ran out of room, hitting his pad.

    Next is VIktor Kozlov for CSKA.
     
    Riga getting the first shot, it will be Miks Indrasis.
     
    Start of shootout.
     
    Neither team with a shot on goal in overtime by my figuring. Miks Indrasis shot just as time expired but it won`t count as a shot as it hit Stana after time expired.

    Shootout coming up.
     
    65:00
    Overtime finished.
     
    63:30
    Shot by Markov slides just wide with Tellqvist down.
     
    63:04
    Pavlovs blocks a shot from Kondratiev.
     
    62:59
    Icing Riga. Only 2 minutes left in overtime and neither team has a shot on goal by my unofficial count.
     
    61:00
    Puck in the Riga zone early but CSKA so far not able to get a shot on goal.
     
    60:01
    Overtime began.
     
    CSKA owned most of that period and Riga has Mikael Tellqvist to thank that they are getting at least 1 point from it. However, they seem to feel robbed by a goal that was taken away from them in the last 2 minutes.

    Each team gets one point and they now play for a 2nd. We have 5 minutes of 4-on-4 sudden-death overtime coming up. If neither team scores, we go to a shootout.
     
    60:00
    3rd period finished.
     
    No goal. The crowd seems shocked, but I'm not. One could argue there should have been a delay-of-game call (which would have been a penalty shot in the last 2 minutes of regulation time), but that's another argument and I wasn't able to see any replay.
