		Game over.
	59:21	Okanagan back at full strength, goalie out, Stambolidis's slapper is caught by Werren.
	58:43	Goal for Zürich! There was a wild scramble around the net and finally the puck was put in, although from here it's difficult to see who it was, but NILS PFISTER was whacking away at it at the side of the net. It's a power-play goal and they'll remain on the power play for another :31.
	58:15	Scramble around the net, puck loose and Raz down, but nobody can sweep it in.
	57:50	Slapper by Lukaszek, Raz holds. His team now 2 men short for 1:10.
	57:22	Now an icing call is made against Okanagan, but it's an error by the linesmen as they are shorthanded. Faceoff at centre ice.
	57:14	Penalty for Okanagan Hockey Academy (Mostovoy – 2 min., slashing).
	57:00	Penalty for Okanagan Hockey Academy (Neubaer – 2 min., holding). Burger came out of the penalty box and almost got a breakaway, Neubaer had to hold him. 4 on 4.
	56:20	They pass it around the outside but not getting shots through to the net.
	55:36	Timeout Okanagan. Big opportunity for them here to take the lead.
	55:36	Penalty for ZSC Lions Zurich (Pfister – 2 min., high-sticking). The referee didn't see it at first but the linesman reported it after the Okanagan player was slow to get up. The Zurich bench is not happy, and they will be 2 players short for 1:15.
	55:10	Two shorthanded chances by Zurich, first Raz makes a big save on Sigrist, then another save on the rebound.
	54:51	Penalty for ZSC Lions Zurich (Burger – 2 min., cross-checking).
