    Thank you for following this game and the whole series with us! (16:46:44)
     
    Game no. 5 of the Eastern Conference quarterfinals between Metallurg Magnitogorsk and Admiral Vladivostok was typical for this series!

    Metallurg's top offensive line dominated the game (Zaripov 1G 2A; Mozyakin 1G 3A, Kovar 2G) and made possible all four goals to beat Admiral 4-3 in overtime and to reach the Conference semifinals with 4 wins to 1 against Admiral!

    Shots on goal: Metallurg 4 (34) – Admiral 0 (40)
     
    Game over.
     
    63:15
    Goal for Metallurg!

    SERGEI MOZYAKIN receives the puck inside the neutral zone, skates into the slot, dekes out Dmitry Vorobyov and fires the puck into the left top corner past the chanceless Ivannikov to win game no. 5 in overtime for Metallurg and to end the series!

    Assisted by Danis Zaripov.
     
    62:15
    Metallurg are dominating these first minutes of overtime, want to win this game and this series!
     
    61:16
    Metallurg's Tim Brent misses the net to the right with his shot from within the slot!
     
    60:01
    Overtime began.
     
    In game #3 OT was won by Admiral in the 86th through Ilya Zubov, in game #4 OT even lasted until the 117th when Danis Zaripov decided the match in favour of Metallurg! How long will this overtime last?
     
    For the third (!) consecutive time in this series a game between Metallurg and Admiral goes into overtime after a late power play goal by Justin Hodgman tied the goal by Jan Kovar from early in the third period!

    Shots on goal: Metallurg 10 (30) – Admiral 19 (40)
     
    60:00
    3rd period finished.
     
    59:34
    Dmitry Vorobyov's shot from within the slot is stopped by Koshechkin.
     
    58:50
    Artyom Ternavsky fails to keep the puck inside the Metallurg third and when he re-enters it, there is an offside call.
     
    58:00
    Admiral try to use the momentum and keep the puck in front of the home net!
     
    56:47
    Goal for Admiral!


    Can you belive it?!?!?! After a perfectly-timed pass by Logan Pyett from within the slot towards the left circle it is JUSTIN HODGMAN who deflects the puck into the left corner past the surprised Meteallurg goalie Koshechkin! In power play Admiral force the 3-3!

    Assisted by Logan Pyett!
     
    56:36
    One-timer by Ilya Zubov from the right circle, incredible save by Koshechkin!
     
    56:08
    The guests already go all or nothing and pull out their goalie Ivannikov for an additional attacker! 6 vs 4 skaters on the ice now!
     
    56:08
    Admiral take a timeout!
     
    56:08
    Danis Zaripov (Metallurg) gets two minutes for holding the stick. Completely unnecessary penalty deep into the Admiral third... This of course gives Admiral a great chance to tie this game in power play!
     
    55:58
    Jan Kovar receives a pass from behind the net just in front of the Admiral goalie crease but fails to deflect the puck on target!
     
    55:00
    Five minutes are left to play in regulation in Magnitogorsk. If Metallurg can defend their small lead or if Admiral force another overtime is still in the stars!
