    Lev Praha has now won 5 of their last six games, thanks to a hat trick from their captain Jiří Novotný. Petri Vehanen was also very strong in goal, stopping 28 of 29 shots, including some very nice saves in the third period.

    Jakub Kovar stopped 29 of 31 in goal for Avtomobilist Yekaterinburg, but he couldn't stop this losing slide they are on, which is now up to 5 games. Coincidentally, the streak began in Prague nine days ago, a game they entered with a 7-game winning streak in tact. (17:55:39)
     
    60:00
    Game over.
     
    58:36
    Goal for Lev!
    JIRI NOVOTNY shoots the puck from just across centre and gets his 3rd goal of the game into an empty net, restoring Lev's 2-goal lead.
     
    58:07
    Goal for Avtomobilist!
    Just seconds earlier they had hit the goal post, but from the ensuing scramble the puck wehnt back to the point and SAMI LEPISTO fired it through a crowd and Vehanen never saw it. Power-play goal. Assist: Artyom Chernov.
     
    57:44
    Kovar goes to the bench for a sixth attacker as Avto heads up ice.
     
    57:24
    We've got off-setting penalties coming up against Tobias Viklund for holding and Patrik Zackrisson for roughing. We'll play 4-on-3 with the faceoff in the Avto zone.
     
    57:04
    Timeout Avtomobilist. It appears Kovar will remain in the net, but he will probably come out if they can get possession in the Lev zone. The faceoff is outside the line.
     
    57:04
    Offside Avto with 1:19 left in the power play.
     
    56:23
    After over a minute, the penalty is upcoming against Lev, and it's holding against Martin Thornberg. Avto had some good possession in the Lev zone during the delay but didn't land any shots on goal, and Lev has to be pleased with killing a minute off the clock at this juncture. You have to say, down by 2 goals, Avto absolutely must score on this power play.
     
    55:20
    Delayed penalty against Lev, Kovar goes to the bench.
     
    54:09
    Avto comes up ice again, V Streltsov with the shot from the top of the circle but Vehanen stops and covers it.
     
    53:50
    Oystrick shoots from the point, but it gets deflected out of play. Faceoff in the Avto zone.
     
    52:40
    Malykhin attempts a wraparound, Vehanen has the paddle down and denies his, then Lazarev fires the rebound just wide of the post.
     
    52:05
    Offside Lev, Azevedo collides with Viklund after the whistle and we have some pushing and shoving. No penalties are called.
     
    51:54
    Offside Avto.
     
    50:17
    Icing Lev.
     
    49:48
    Lev's 4th line on the offensive again, Cingel tried to cut out from the corner but Kovar jammed the pad against the post and gave him nothing, and eventually covered it.
     
    49:02
    Slapper from Lepisto, pad save Vehanen.
     
    48:19
    Chernov from the corner tried to find Malykhin in front, but the pass didn't reach him and Vehanen covers it.
     
    47:06
    Icing Lev.
