The patience by the Metallurg power play formation paid off as YAROSLAV KHABAROV made it 3-2 with a one-timer from within the slot! Metallurg are back in the game!
Assisted by Justin Hodgman.
After receiving a pass by former Ak Bars forward Danis Zaripov it was CHRIS LEE who fired the puck past Barulin from within the slot to get Metallurg onto the scoreboard for the first time in power play!
Assisted by Rinat Ibragimov and Danis Zaripov.
DMITRY OBUKHOV receives the puck inside the slot and dekes out Pechursky in a perfect manner to score the 3-0 into the wide open net! Is this the decision already?
Assisted by Konstantin Korneyev and Denis Golubev.
The huge pressure by the Ak Bars offense in the last minutes pays off! After a pass from behind the net it was MIKHAIL VARNAKOV who scored with his stick 30 cm in the air into the left corner!
Assisted by Shaun Heshka and Tim Stapleton.
More or less out of the blue the hosts gain the lead in this match! JANNE PESONEN tried it withh a one-timer from the right wing at height of the blue line and the puck went straight iinto the net past the surprised guest goalie Pechursky!
Assisted by Shaun Heshka and Vladimir Tkachyov.
