Revenge in St. Petes

In the third matchup against Dynamo finally defeated SKA.

Newcomer defenseman Brennan Menell debuted for our team in the third battle against SKA, he was paired with Kirill Gotoves. Also, Andrei Nikonov returned to the lineup.

SKA started the game better; they had a couple of chances. In the end of the period our ex-player Andrei Pedan opened the scoreboard, however officials whistled before the puck went in. After review they announced that Damir Zhafyarov scored for SKA few seconds earlier Pedan’s goal.

In the second we’ve played very decent hockey. SKA started to visit penalty box and Eric O’Dell at the breakaway during powerplay tied the game. Later it was very nervous games with limited chances to score. It went to overtime and then to shootout series where Dmitry Rashevsky gave us the first win against Army team in the season and stopped their tremendous a 9-game winning streak.

SKA – Dynamo Moscow – 1:2 SO (1:0, 0:1, 0:0, 0:0, 0:1)
