Monday 10.03.2014, 14:00 • Ice Palace CSKA • KHL
     
    Roman Cervenka's fantastic powerplay winner has given SKA a vital 2-1 victory over CSKA, a victory which means that the Saint Petersburgers now go 3-0 up in the series! CSKA had their own powerplay in overtime but they couldn't take advantage of it and SKA punished them in the perfect manner. Thanks for following the game with us, and see you again soon for more thrilling KHL playoff action! (17:05:25)
     
    Game over.
     
    71:05
    Goal for SKA! They've done it! Excellent build up play is finished off by ROMAN CERVENKA who hammers a one timer past Glass from the right faceoff circle, powerplay goal and it's 2-1! Assists- Dmitriy Kalinin and Kevin Dallman
     
    70:20
    The visitors are now back at full strength and have a small powerplay opportunity for themselves
     
    70:17
    Dallman whacks the puck into Glass's glove from outside the blue line to force him to cover. And SKA have now taken a timeout
     
    70:01
    SKA move offside
     
    69:38
    CSKA are giving it everything they've got but they've picked up a needless penalty to even up the numbers, Saprykin for slashing has been penalised
     
    68:42
    Right off the faceoff draw Deron Quint smashes a slapshot into Salak who lets the puck drop to Prokhorkin but the young forward just can't squeeze it home!
     
    68:20
    Dinar Khafizullin for high sticking against Prokhorkin has been sent to the penalty box and CSKA have a big chance here to finish this game off
     
    67:11
    Nepryaev from an awkward angle against the left hand boards checks that Salak is awake with his pads
     
    66:36
    Salak at the second attempt dives on a strong Pervyshin slapshot from just outside the SKA zone
     
    65:09
    Semyonov this time lets go but it's not as hard for Glass to deal with
     
    64:49
    Dallman! What a chance to win the game for SKA! Kovalchuk with a wonderful cross ice pass releases the open Dallman who winds up and finds only Glass!
     
    64:37
    Just after Ketov couldn't find anyone on the slot for SKA Misharin goes up the other end but from the left faceoff circle he hits only the body of Salak
     
    64:02
    Pervyshin fires through a crowd of bodies from distance but it gets deflected before it can come to Salak!
     
    62:40
    CSKA have taken up the early initiative in overtime, they know that already at 2-0 down in the series they can ill afford to lose today
     
    61:59
    It's another icing from the home side
     
    61:20
    Salak has to be very alert at his near right hand post to deny a snapshot from Filppula from what appeared an impossible angle!
     
    60:09
    Icing is committed by CSKA
     
    60:01
    Here we go in overtime! Remember that in the playoffs there is no shootouts, so we will keep on playing until the next goal is scored.
