Well that's in from Prague for the season. There's one more KHL game in the 2013-14 season and it will be in Magnitogorsk on Wednesday, 19:00 YEKT, 15:00 CEST, 09:00 EDT.
These two teams have gone back and forth in this series, and have now traded overtime wins on home ice to set up a one-game, winner-take-all for the Gagarin Cup. (22:22:28)
Lev came back quickly the other way, a long shot from Zackrisson trickles through Koshechkin and he saves it from going over the line. Then Metallurg can't get it out of the zone and Zackrisson took another long shot. Koshechkin stopped it but was still off balance and NATHAN OYSTRICK got two whacks at the puck, the second one from below the goal line banked in off Koshechkin's right leg and across the goal line. We're going to game 7!
Assist: Patrik Zackrisson.
You can feel the nervous tension in this building. The Gagarin Cup is in the building too. Will it be presented tonight, or on Wednesday in Magnitogorsk?
After this game was played at a breakneck pace for 40 minutes, Metallurg tried to sit back and protect the lead in the third period, and that might have been a mistake. Mikko Maenpaa scored the tying goal with 2:21 left in regulation time. If Lev score the next goal, we go to game 7, if Metallurg score the KHL season is over.
Shots on goal in the 3rd period (and game): Lev 5 (28), Metallurg 8 (30).
Quality scoring chances: Lev 2 (12), Metallurg 2 (13).
Sudden-death overtime begins at 21:24 CEST, 01:24 YEKT, 15:24 EDT.
Wow! They were getting nothing as Metallurg sat back defending, but finally they get a shot through after the puck came out of a scramble along the boards, MIKKO MAENPAA wristed it through a crowd and this game is tied 4-4!
