Wow, much like me you're probably all just taking a breath after tonight's drama – two penalty shootouts, two teams coming rom behind to win their series, and 4 top games!
(22:55:48)
Champions Out
Andreas Johnsson ends Lulea's reign as Champions of Europe by scoring the winning penalty shot! Frolunda are through!
We are having a shootout in Gothenburg!
Such a tight game in Gothenburg, 3:43 to go in OT and still we have nothing to separate the teams.
No separating Frolunda and Lulea over six periods... we need overtime!
Lulea's Mastomaki takes a two minute minor late on, Frolunda call the time-out... 2:44 to go.
Nothing doing for the hosts – 5:01 to go and we're still tied on aggregate.
Power break in Gothenburg, and Frolunda are about to go on the PP with 7 minutes to go.
Frolunda are back to five skaters – they've escaped the major penalty with 'only' one goal against.
Goal!
Well that didn't take long – 46:12 on the clock, and Johan HARJU hits the PP marker for Lulea to make it seven all on aggregate!
Patrick CARLSSON of Frolunda has just been ejected on a 5+Game Boarding call. Big kill coming up for the hosts.
Period three under way in Gothenburg – Lulea need a goal to avoid going out, Frolunda need a clean sheet this period to make the semis.
It hasn't escaped our knowledge that so far you, the people who voted via twitter on tonight's game, have called 3/3 of the results so far! Good effort :)
Not every hockey game that has 8 goals in two periods. Can't wait for the third.
#CHL#Playoffs
What a HUGE period coming up in Gothenburg shortly – the hosts are ahead on aggregate for the first time tonight, and could knock-out the defending champions!
GOAL!
Frolunda now lead on aggregate as Spencer Abbott scores in 35. min!
Frolunda – Lulea Hockey 5–3
(7–6 on aggregate)
#CHL#playoffs
DING-DONG... another blow in Gothenburg! Patrik CARLSSON puts Frolunda in the lead on the night just over a minute into period two, meaning we're level on aggregate.
Now that's how you watch hockey on TV...
A big night in the Champions (Hockey) League...
... Quarter finals, but you knew that right! ????⛸❄️ #CHLpic.twitter.com/oEUUsoioBU
Lukko Rauma win the shootout 1-0 to advance to the semifinals!
How things stand
We're going the distance in Rauma – Lukko vs. TPS will be decided by a shootout!
In Gothenburg, Frolunda are just about to start their match vs. Lulea.
And lastly in Skelleftea, Davos have the most slender of leads at 2-1 ahead.
Oh Rony AHONEN how did you not score that?! Unmarked out in front, and fired straight into the goalie. TPS call a timeout, just over a minute to go in Rauma.
Comeback on?
Skelleftea are back in this against Davos as Eric FORSSELL nets just 23s into period two.
In case you'd forgotten from all this excitement, we still have one more match to start! Just 12 minutes to go until Frolunda host Lulea, with the home side down a goal from the first leg.
Done deal
Julius JUNTTILA completed his hat-trick on the breakaway to give Karpat a SH goal! That puts his side 5-1 ahead on the night, 5-3 overall, and they're heading to the semifinal!
Meanwhile in Skelleftea...
1st intermission:
Skelleftea AIK – HC Davos 0–2
(1–3 on aggregate)
#CHL#playoffs
No scoring in Rauma, and this Lukko-TPS game is heading to an extra period.
Drama alert! Espoo now skating 5-on-3, while TPS take a minor to put Lukko on the PP in the closing stages.
Hang on... Espoo heading on the PP.
Power break in the Lukko game with just over 3 minutes to play, in this tied series. In Oulu we have 4:40 to play, with Espoo needing just one goal to tie things up on aggregate with Karpat.
Goal!
Tied game, and series, in Lukko... Harry TIKKANEN breaks his stick in the process of the shot, but it loops in and he doesn't care! 1-1 on the night, four each overall.
Goal!
Having fallen at the semi-final stage last season, are Skelleftea about to fall a round earlier this time? They're 2-0 now at home to Davos!
Complete madness in Oulu! Karpat go ahead n aggregate through Julius JUNTTILA at 46:27, only for Antti SUOMELA to level it for Espoo 45s later. But that's not all – Markus NUTIVAARA comes back 49s after and puts Karpat ahead again 4-3 on aggregate (4-1 on the night).
Goal!
... and what a key one this could turn out to be! 4:07 on the board in Skelleftea, and Dick AXELSSON has given Davos the lead!
Remember the first leg ended one each, so whoever wins tonight goes through.
We're also less than 10 minutes away now from the game in Skelleftea starting.
Goal!
Ville VAHALAHTI with a neat finish out in front puts Lukko ahead at home to TPS. The aggregate score here is pretty irrelevant as the first leg ended all square, but for the purists it stands at 4-3 overall!
You have to credit Espoo – going down by two that early, and surrendering their aggregate lead, can't have been easy, but they're still fighting in there.
Back under way in the 17:30 starts... the next goal in either tie will put the scoring team into the lead.
Lineups are in for the game in Skelleftea, where Davos are the visitors, which gets going in just over 40 minutes.
