Only two games on today as the first major travel portion of the season comes upon the league. We begin with...
Jokerit Helsinki welcoming Dinamo Minsk. Jeff Glass and Henrik Karlsson man the nets. Minsk got going in the third period on a Ryan Vesce goal, made possible by Nick Bailen and Charles Linglet. This stood for a 1-0 final, with the three stars awarded to Glass (39 save shutout), Karlsson (25 for 26 in saves), and Vesce.
The other game sees Severstal Cherepovets bring in Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod. Ilya Proskuryakov and Jakub Stepanek are in goal. Cherepovets began in the first period with a Yury Trubachyov power play goal, powered by Andrei Shefer and Dmitry Kagarlitsky. Severstal added on with a shorthanded Kagarlitsky goal, set up by Pavel Chernov. Nizhny Novgorod got on the board with a Carter Ashton power play goal, assisted by Alexei Pepelyaev and Andrei Kostitsyn. Torpedo tied it on a power play goal by Evgeny Mozer in the second period, fueled by Oleg Piganovich and Linus Videll. Nizhny Novgorod grabbed the lead on a Videll goal, going in unassisted. Cherepovets retied it on a third period goal by Anatoly Nikontsev, guided in by Trubachyov and Pavel Buchnevich on the power play. The tie went to a shootout, where Trubachyov and Buchnevich scored for Severstal, lifting them over a lone tally by Torpedo's Kostitsyn. The three stars of the 4-3 game were Kagarlitsky, Trubachyov, and Videll, while Buchnevich gets an honorable mention.
