    Thanks for following us tonight and congrats to Grenoble Bruleurs de Loups for this first CHL win by a French team ! (21:53:52)
     
    There is a final game in group F : on Sunday Litvinov plays Espoo Blues on home ice. Litvinov will finish 1st in the group, Espoo 2nd and Grenoble 3rd.
     
    Espoo MVP : Otso Rantakari, Grenoble MVP : Ervins Muštukovs
     
    However the Blues will advance to the next round because they have edge against Grenoble on both games, having won 4-2 the first game in Espoo.
     
    Espoo took too many penalties and wasn't good enough offensively to beat Muštukovs more than once tonight.

     
    That wasn't enough but this first CHL win is already a great accomplisment for the home team.
     
    Grenoble played very well defensively tonight, putting a lot of energy in the game during the 60 minutes.... Grenoble tried everything to get at least a 2 goal win at the end of the game.
     
    Grenoble wins first CHL game !
     
    Game over.
