HK Nitra equalled the Extraliga final series at 2 apiece against slovan Bratislava with a clear 4-1 win.

 

They took the lead early in the game and they never looked back.

 

Not the most exciting match of the post-season, for sure...

but man that was some nervous match   That moment when the goalie went all nuts after the final buzzer

best moment of the whole game, I'd say...

 

it reminded me some good old style hockey, when getting close to the cage was really a painful and risky move by every player 'cause the goalies were basically free to hit them hard without the refs saying absolutely nothing...

by the way, Slaf's season in Finland is over...

 

 

Tappara Tampere in fact won game #5 of the Liiga Finals by a score of 1-0 against TPS Turku (game winner scored after only 35 seconds of play in the opening period ) and won the 2021/2022 title.

 

The score of the final series is 4-1.

 

More infos and a full season's recap tomorrow...

 

 

 

on the Russian side, instead, CSKA Moscow scored twice early in the first period and the lone goal by Metallurg in the second stint wasn't enough to catch them.

 

Therefore the Gagarin Cup will go to an always amazing game #7 (Saturday in Magnitogorsk, puck drop @ 5 p.m. local, 2 p.m. CET)
