63 seconds decides the game

The Leopards started another road trip of the season at Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan.

Maxim Tretyak started the game in the net, Pavel Kushktel got the spot of Malte Stromwall who was traded to SKA in the first line. Today is the holiday in Kazakhstan, so probably it was an extra motivation for Barys this night.

In the middle of the first period we got two penalties. Barys capitalized firstly 5-on-3 and later 5-on-4 to make the score 2-0. It was an even game, only at the end of the game we got our first powerplay opportunity. Maxim Tretyak played another good game for our team, when his opponent Henrik Karlsson was unbeatable and grabbed a shutout.

Sochi is moving to Novosibirsk where it will face Sibir on Thursday night.
