Lokomotiv went away

It was first meeting against Lokomotiv this season. The games between two teams are usually very interesting but this year it became even more. In the summer teams exchanged goalies and to watch first game for Ivan Bocharov against Dynamo was quite intriguing.

Lokomotiv started better and they got on the board with a goal from Denis Alexeyev. Dynamo Moscow answered with nice redirection from Andrei Nikonov who scored his first KHL goal after longshot from Andrei Mironov.

In the second Lokomotiv used their chances. Firstly, Denis Alexeyev with a great solo move made it 2-1 and later Ivan Chekhovich with a nice snipe shot increased their lead.

Dynamo tried to save the game, but penalties limited our chances to save the game and grab point from this matchup.
