One-goal game

After the first game coaches made a big number of changes. SKA replaced five players, our change happened due to Dmitry Kagarlitsky’s injury, he was replaced in the lineup by Andrei Alexeyev.

New lines needed few times to find chemistry. In the first period SKA mostly dominated on the ice, we had a number of breakaways. Ivan Bocharov played his 150th game for Dynamo and was solid like in game #1.

In the second period, SKA outshot us with a 15-6 score. Bocharov had big saves on Vasily Podkolzin and Andrei Kuzmenko. Dynamo was better in the third, we had two powerplay opportunities. SKA capitalized on the powerplay with 2:18 left to play, Kirill Marchenko buried the rebound to tie the series.

SKA – Dynamo Moscow – 1:0 (0:0, 0:0, 1:0)

Goals: 1:0 Marchenko (Vey, Ozhiganov, 57:42, PP)
