Today, two games took place in the Continental Hockey League (KHL). In one of them, the St. Petersburg SKA played the Moscow “Dynamo” with the result 3: 2. This was the fifth victory in a row for SKA. In the previous match, St. Petersburg hockey players beat Riga’s “Dinamo” 5: 4 in a series of post-match throws, but “Dynamo” will visit Riga on Sunday.
SKA gained a two-goal lead in the first minutes of the match, when Andrejs Kuzmenko and Artyom Švets-Rogovojs were accurate, but in the middle of the first period, Dynamo hockey player Dmitrijs Raševskis regained one goal. In the second third, Kuzmenko scored his second goal in the match, but Dynamo managed to reduce his lead only in the final 20 minutes, when the majority was realized by Andrejs Sergejevs.
In the second duel of the day, Bob Hartley-led Omsk’s Avangard defeated Ufa’s Salavat Yulaev at home 2: 1, ending his two-loss series. Peter Cehlarik and Corban Knight stood out as the winners, while Salavat Yulaev naked was Sergei Shmelov.
