    Another physical game between Lev and Medvescak, with Lev scoring 4 times in the third period (twice on the power play) to win 5-2. The series now shifts to Croatia for games 3 and 4 on Monday and Tuesday. Playing this hard, 4 games in 5 nights is going to be a physical test for these two teams. Lev lead the series 2-0.

    Medvescak unable to re-enter th Lev zone and, if there was any doubt left, JUSTIN AZEVEDO seals it with an empty-net goal.
     
    59:35
    Oystrick backhands it high and out of the zone.
     
    59:07
    Timeout Lev, they don't want this to be as scary as last night and want to know their defensive assignments.

    Now a shot from Katic from the boards deflects in front and Petri Vehanen had to be sharp to stop that one. He holds on.
     
    56:19
    Goal for Lev!
    Michal Repik forced a turnover along the boards, cut in on goal, Barry Brust made a nice poke-check but the puck went right to PATRIK ZACKRISSON, and Brust was helpless to stop him from firing it in.

    49:09
    Goal for Lev!
    MARTIN THORNBERG carried the puck down the right wing boards, looked like he was in too deep but below the hashmarks he fired a perfect wrister high glove side on Brust -- there wasn't much room between the shoulder and crossbar but he found it. Power-play goal.
    Assist: Mikko Maenpaa.
     
    48:44
    One-time slapper from Ondrej Nemec and a nice glove save by Barry Brust with exactly 1:00 left in the penalty.

    Nemec must be a tired man, he's been one of the leading ice getters in these two games and became a father early this morning, so I doubt he's had any sleep since game 1.
