For Lokomotiv the playoff race remains completely open with 6 points more than 9th placed Atlant and six games left to play. Both Lokomotiv and Atlant have still 4 games on home ice to end the regular season.
Shots on goal: Medvescak 5 (29) – Lokomotiv 18 (42)
Two great goalies and power play lacking efficiency are the main reasons we just saw one goal by now.
Shots on goal: Medvescak 10 (24) – Lokomotiv 11 (24)
The home side gets the 1-0 lead early in this second period! MIKE GLUMAC tried it with a pass from the left circle that came to Michael Ryan who wasn't able to controll the puck and after skating from behind the net Glumac had the puck again on his stick and deflected it into the right bottom corner past the surprised guest goalie Sanford! What a strange goal!
Assisted by Michael Ryan.

While the Croatians can count fully on a first-time playoff participation, Lokomotiv still have a long way ahead of them. Currently they have a six-point advantage towards 9th placed Atlant Mytishchi with one game less played.
In a month of January with many ups and downs, Medvescak started their current home stand with a 4-2 win over Atlant Mytishchi on Thursday. Lokomotiv started their road trip with a 3-1 away win against Spartak Moscow the very same day.
A close game can be expected in any case with Medvescak being in the position as favourites in front of their own fans!
