Thursday 12.09.2013, 15:00 • KHL
     
    Yaroslavl finally found the peace in their offense and crushed its opponents tonight. The defending needs to be fixed though. Yekaterinburg needs to change a lot.

    That's all from me today, have a good rest of the day. (17:09:47)
     
    Shots on goal – 27:29.
    Penalties – 4:9.
     
    60:00
    Game over.
     
    59:00
    Yekaterinburg is waiting behind its own net.
     
    57:00
    One thing is for sure, today's match was decided by awfulness of Yekaterinburg's offense and greatness of Yaroslavl's offense. Lobanov couldn't really do anything to stop his opponents today. Yaroslavl's defenders weren't showing great performance either though, luckily for them Yekaterinburg couldn't take advantage of that.
     
    56:00
    Even Yaroslavl doesn't look like it wants to score more goals.
     
    54:00
    It doesn't seem Yekaterinburg is even trying anymore. Six minutes to go.
     
    52:51
    Goal for Lokomotiv!

    Unfortunately Lobanov had to concede one more time. Chernikov found completely free DAVID ULLSTROM, who had no problem to score. Assist: Alexander Chernikov.
     
    51:11
    Averin's shot was stopped by Lobanov, who is with no doubts the best player of his team.
     
    50:05
    Yaroslavl defended its 6th penalty.
     
    49:53
    Embarrassing match for Yekaterinburg. Malykhin attacked his opponent for no reason and gets 2 minutes. I would give him 10, minimum.
     
    49:48
    Five on four, I'm not afraid to say, that Yekaterinburg is done for.
     
    49:12
    Yekaterinburg is still in the offensive third, but they just can't get a shot on the net...
     
    48:50
    Another shot from the blue line. This time it was Gusev, but he hitted only one of the falling opponents.
     
    48:22
    Shot by Lewandowski from the blue line.... He missed.
     
    48:05
    This is surely the last chance of Yekaterinburg. Averin gets also two minutes for tripping and it will be 5 on 3.
     
    47:48
    Ullstrom gets two minutes for tripping.
     
    47:11
    This is just amazing. Another two on one situations for Yekaterinburg and once again no shot on the goal!!
     
    46:34
    Yaroslavl is enjoying this match and it's in no hurry right now.
     
    45:34
    Yekaterinburg is in full strength, but this powerplay had probably more shots then all four previous ones.
