    Djurgardens IF – Eisbären Berlin 3:2 final score

    And game is over also in Stockholm, Djurgarden won 3:2. Eisbären did play shorthanded since 57th minute because Andre Rankel got a 5 minute major and game misconduct for high sticking. Eisbären tried to pull goalie Vehanen at the end, but with no luck.

    Eisbären stays at the bottom of group D with a single point, DIF trails leading duo PSG Zlin – Fribourg-Gotteron being one point behind.

    Both teams will meet on Sunday in Berlin's O2 arena. (22:44:55)
     
    Djurgarden – Eisbären is the only remaining game in progress for today, 3:2 for Djurgarden at 54th minute.
     
    Djurgaren – Eisbaren Berlin 2:2 in the 50th minute

    Eisbären Berlin took momentum of the game in Stockholm. First, Andre Rankel hit the post and after a little while Rankel assisted Mark Bell at his shorthanded equalizer! Hans Särkijärvi, coach of DIF, takes a time out.
     
    Lulea is 50% effective in their powerplays. 8 penalties for Hamburg and 4 powerplay goals for Lulea. They also leads league's scoring efficiency stats with 17.95%

    Their scorers today: Ledin, Petrell, Fogstrom, Wallmark, Granstrom and Zaar.
     
    56:09 in the game, Marcus Nilsson of HV71 scores his third goal of the match!

    HV71 misses Kevin Fiala and Bjorn Melin in today's game, but apparently depth of their roster is enough to cope even with such a outages.
     
    Red Bull Salzbug – JYP Jyväskylä 4:0 final score

    Jyväskylä pulled their goalie at 57:32 while being down by 3 goals, but Salzburg hit only the post of the empty net. Followed by a foul of Hubacek (JYP), subsequent powerplay opened the way to David Meckler who scored fourth goal for Red Bull.

    Shotout for Luka Gracnar (35 saves tonight) and HV71 5:0 in Kloten lead in the last period means that after Gameday 3, Salzburg, Jyväskylä and HV71 will be tied with 6 points each in the group I and all three teams have the same chances to be seen in playoffs.
     
    Djurgården Stockholm – Eisbären Berlin 2:1 after the second period.

    Some quick passes and a shot from the top of the face off circle and we have 2:1 for Djurgården in the two man advantege. Goal was scored by defenseman Alexander Deilert.
     
    American Brett Sterling makes it 3:0 for Salzburg. Nice pass by Raffl finds Sterling in front of the open net. 4 mnutes to go.

    Sterling helped team USA to win its first gold at the IIHF World Under-18 Championship back in 2002. He scored 9 goals in 8 games that tournament, while playing with such a names like Zach Parise, Ryan Kessler and Patrick Eaves.
     
    Lulea – Hamburg 3:0 after the second period.

    Perell and Fogrtrom scored in the second period and solid performance of Daniel Larsson in Lulea's net gives home side an easy situation for the third period. Hamburg are still with only goal from inaugural game at home against Lulea, their next endeavours in Rauma and Lulea are goalless.
     
    Kloten Flyers – HV71 Jönköping 0:4 after the second period

    555 NHL games has Marcus Nilsson under his belt and it's no wonder he plays a huge role in HV71's offensive. His second goal of the night came when James Vandermeer of Kloten got a 2 minutes + 5 minutes + game misconduct penalty after a nasty foul on Jamtin. In the back-to-back 5-4 powerplay, HV71's captain Ted Brithen topped up the score to 4:0 for his team.
    HC CSOB Pojistovna Pardubice released a footage of the press conference after the game with Linköping:
