    Thank you for following the game with us! (18:44:21)
     
    In the last 20 minutes Dynamo defended without major problems. Both teams had one really good opportunity in the third period but nothing else and the Dynamo lead was never in real danger.

    While CSKA's Stana had a terrible day with looking not really good during all three goals against, Dynamo's Yeryomenko stopped all shots he faced and earned the first shutout in this series.

    Shots on goal: CSKA 5 (21) - Dynamo 6 (22)

    Today starts the Western Conference semi final between city neighbours CSKA and Dynamo Moscow.

    Both had a relatively easy entry into the second round of this year's Gagarin Cup playoffs when they defeated league necomers Lev Prague (CSKA) and Slovan Bratislava (Dynamo) with a sweep in just four games.

    In this series there are no favourites, so the more important will be if CSKA can use their home advantage.
     
    Welcome. Game starts at 15:30 GMT / 16:30 CET.
