After Salak allowed a rebound against a blue line shot by Martin Skoula it was MILAN BARTOVIC who cut the deficit to two in power play – or better said his left leg did all the work for him as the puck hit him before he could react! The referees decided to look at the situation again but there was no kicking motion and the goal counts!
Assisted by Martin Skoula and Juraj Mikus.
Is this already the decision? ALEXEI PONIKAROVSKY received the puck at the left circle with his back towards the net, turned around and left the last defender behind him, skated towards the net and scored the 4-1 with a back hander into the left top corner! What a goal!
Assisted by Alexei Semenov.
Exactly one minute after their last goal SKA make it 3-1! After a perfect cross-pass towards the right post ARTEMY PANARIN fired the puck into the right bottom corner with a one-timer! Absolutely no chance for Janus! Bitter for the guests who looked very solid during the first period.
Assisted by Alexander Kucheryavenko and Alexei Ponikarovsky.
A precise cross-pass by Ilya Kovalchuk from within the slot came towards the left post from where VADIM SHIPACHYOV battled the puck in after Janus allowed a rebound against Tony Martensson. 2-1 SKA in power play!
Assisted by Ilya Kovalchuk and Tony Martensson.
Out of the blue the guests from Slovakia are able to tie the game! Nobody attacked Roman Kukumberg behind the SKA net so that he could skate around the left post and give a brilliant cross-pass to TOMAS NETIK who finished the job by deflecting the puck into the wide open net past the chanceless Salak!
Assisted by Roman Kukumberg and Michel Miklik.
After a precise cross-pass from the right circle by Alexei Ponikarovsky it was ARTEMY PANARIN who fired a one-timer into the left top corner being on his kneews! What a great goal for the early 1-0 SKA lead!
Assisted by Alexei Ponikarovsky.
