2015/16 KHL Season - Day 136

Just two games on today, a day where the NHL is back in full force. We begin with...

Admiral Vladivostok hosting Slovan Bratislava. Michael Garnett and Ivan Nalimov make the starts in goal. Vladivostok opened in the first period with an Alexei Ugarov goal, passed from Oskars Bartulis. Bratislava tied it on an Andrej Stastny goal, made possible by Rok Ticar and Ziga Jeglic. Slovan took the lead with a Michel Miklik goal, with a lone assist by Tomas Surovy. Bratislava added on with another Miklik goal in the third period, assisted by Milan Bartovic and Ivan Svarny. This stood for a 3-1 win, with the three stars going to Miklik, Garnett (26 for 27 in saves), and Stastny.

The other game is up in Khabarovsk, where Amur hosts Medvescak Zagreb. Joakim Lundstrom and Juha Metsola draw the starts. Zagreb started with a Patrick Bjorkstrand goal, via Alexandre Bolduc. Khabarovsk tied it on a Mikhail Zheleznov shorthanded goal, set up by Daniil Stalnov and Evgeny Grachyov. Medvascak took the lead back with a Mike Glumac goal, passed from Stefano Giliati. Evgeny Alikin replaced an injured Metsola shortly after this goal. Amur tied it in the second period with a Grachyov goal, guided in by Vitaly Shulakov. Zagreb took the lead back with a Giliati power play goal, powered by Gilbert Brule. Medvescak added on with a Radek Smolenak power play goal, with a lone assist by Tuukka Mantyla. Zagreb extended the lead as Glumac scored a shorthanded goal in the third period, thanks to Blake Parlett. Khabarovsk pulled back with a Vladislav Ushenin power play goal, helped along by Vyacheslav Ushenin. Gasper Kroselj took over in goal for Lundstrom late in the game. Medvescak answered with an empty net goal by Edwin Hedberg, coming off of Jesse Saarinen. The three stars went to Glumac, Giliati, and Smolenak.
