Thursday 09.01.2014, 13:00 • Sibir Ice Palace • KHL
     
    It's a great day for Sibir fans, as they've seen their club thrash one of the biggest teams in the league SKA Saint Petersburg 4-0! It was clear how much they wanted the victory today, and SKA just didn't have the hunger for the fight. Dmitriy Kugryshev opened up the scoring in the second period before Alexey Kopeikin quickly doubled their advantage, and Jori Lehtera finished the game off with a third period double. Thanks for following the game with us, and join me soon for Torpedo Nizhniy Novgorod against Barys Astana! (15:23:46)
