Empty netter to seal the deal! Moments after Leighton left for the bench, BILL THOMAS strikes from the left board and beats Clay Wilson who tried to deflect the shot for the final word today.
Unassisted.
Medvescak take a slight initiative and immediately score. ANDREW MURRAY was the luckiest to touch the puck before it went past the goal line from the scramble before Leighton. Bjorsktrand took it from behind the net to the right, fired a shot, deflected by Leighton, but then Murray skates right on it.
Assist: Patrick Bjorkstrand.
Just as I say it, Donbass score. PETTERI WIRTANEN gets the puck onskating towards the net from the right boards and as he reaches the post a feed is sent, he only had to tip it a bit and get Donbass into a more comfortable situation.
Assist: Vaclav Nedorost.
Off the faceoff on the left MICHAEL RYAN takes a hard slapper and Leighton can only watch the puck go by.
Assist: Ryan Vesce.
TEEMU LAINE finds himself all alone in the slot on a deflection and puts the puck behind Brust who can't recover.
Assists: Oleg Piganovich, Lukas Kaspar.
With two men up Medvescak double the lead. Kurtis Foster from the blue forwards the pass to BILL THOMAS who finds himself in a perfect spot at the edge of the left circle and fires a one-timer into the upper right, again the glove side for Leighton.
Assists: Kurtis Foster, Matt Murley.
First come, first serve! With their first shot the visiting side scores as PATRIK BJORKSTRAND opens the scoring taking the puck into the zone through the middle and firing a blast to the upper glove side of Michael Leighton, who can't stop the shot.
Unassisted.
