    Eurolivescores MVP:
    I'd like to nominate both Brandon Bochenski and Nigel Dawes for the MVP award. Namely, Bochenski racked up five points (2G, 3A) and was a killer on the ice, while Nigel Dawes worked perfect with him in the line and recorded a hattrick. The whole Barys team were super efficient, but those were a bit a bit above the others.
     
    Shots on goal: BAR 12 (33), AMU 10 (35)
    Blocked shots: BAR 1 (4), AMU 0 (0)
    Faceoffs: BAR 12 (33), AMU 9 (29)
    Hits: BAR 1 (6), AMU 1 (11)
    Penalties: BAR 12 (30), AMU 0 (12)
    Powerplay: BAR 5/6, AMU 1/4
    Ice leaders:
    BAR – Cam Barker – 20:56
    AMU – Dmitry Bykov – 24:46.
     
    What a game by Barys, what a powerplay, exceptional hockey display to get them the huge edge in the game and a six-goal difference in the end.
     
    60:00
    Game over.
     
    59:28
    Barys don't allow them exit their zone so they take over at center ice and go in, but only keep possession and pass back to their zone.
     
    59:00
    We're down to a minute left, and Amur are trying to go down the ice.
     
    58:46
    Icing Barys, so the faceoff comes deep back before Ari Ahonen.
     
    58:00
    Two minutes to go in the game.
     
    57:53
    Mikhail Rakhmanov is eager to get a goal today as he's once again in position inside the zone, but the shot gets deflected off Jarvinen into the netting.
     
    56:41
    Goal for Amur!
    Artyom Dubinin over the right and feeds diagonally to the left for DMITRY LUGIN who gets into the zone and as he gets to the circle fires a hard wrister precise high glove side and beats Ahonen.

    Assist: Artyom Dubinin.
     
    55:40
    Starchenko around the net getting the backward pass though Jarvinen makes the save on the one-timer.
     
    54:46
    Barys just dump the puck and still manage to keep possession as they pass around with nothing significant going on. In and out of the zone.
     
    53:17
    Barys Astana back at full strength.
     
    52:03
    Ari Ahonen is focused in the net as Amur fire from the blue in the middle, the shot coming off Alexander Loginov.
     
    51:17
    Nikita Tserenok (BAR) gets called for checking to the head and neck area on the previous play drawing 2+10 misconduct penalty.
     
    51:13
    If Ahonen doesn't, the pipes will. This is the second bar Amur have hit today coming off the left win and towards the goal, but no luck for them today.
     
    The goalies of Amur distributed the goals well, both let in four. Though Jarvinen has a chance to let in more.
     
    50:38
    Roman Savchenko finds himself in open ice at the point and strikes one hard at Jarvinen who makes the save but receives the shot into the head, the facemask actually and is a bit stunned but gets up after a while.
     
    50:18
    Well, Jarvinen still has a lot to do as Boyd drops a pass for Brandon Bochenski who fires high, but the goalie is able to pull off a chest save.
