It seems like Mathias seger is the last guy off the ice and once the zamboni does the best job in the league the puck is ready to be dropped!
Let's take a look at the starting lineups for each squad! Commander Shepard - Marc Hagan - James Truong
Oliver Klozoff - Stolp Skottson Aleksi O'Koivu-Volkova Collin Gibbles - Martijn Westbroak - Lallo Selman Corey Kennedy - Mathias Seger Tibuk Soonika The lights dim and the anthems play.
The tension in the building can cut diamonds and the puck is about to be dropped!

Westbroak easily muscles Hagan off the opening face off and it's too hard as he sends it deep into the zone, and it seems like this is a set play and klozoff instantly has to ice the puck past three pressing forwards.
Ensuing face off Hagan finds redemption and it seems like the Militia are pressing already with some smooth passes and it seems an odd man rush ensues! Truong streaks to the outside past Seger and decides to keep it to himself and SHOOT.................

You can feel the arena die down after that quick goal here on home ice. But the players don't seem phased, they know they have a job to do and get right back on the horse.
After a couple of minutes of neutral zone defense the Outlaws seem to be pressing and Westbroak wins a clean faceoff in the Militia zone, RIGHT TO GIBBLES FOR A QUICK SHOT.... and a routine save from Volkova. Good III with a big win to keep the pressure up and the cycle work continues from the outlaws. Seemu Telanne gets a nice pass in the slot and fires ..................

The outlaws continue the press on the powerplay and make O'Koivu play like a star studded playoff goalie. He takes 3 quick shots in succession each with no rebound and he seems to just be eating up these pucks tonight and Klozoff gets in some more blocks. The powerplay looks really strong, but the penalty killers have their number right now.
They finally get some space but apparently the outlaws are shooting just a little bit too wild right now and none of them can find the mark! The Penalty ends without much chances and the game has simmered down to a slow boil. Lots of hard hits and clean play from both teams.

5 Minutes in and the second penalty of the game is going to the Outlaws this time. It seems Dzelme took a hit from Truong personally and tripped his has he skated away 2 minutes in the sin bin.
Again the power play looks really strong but the penalty killers just won't give away space. Lots of grinding and not much flash going on this game. Pure playoff hockey.

The penalty ends with no real chances to show for it and both teams settle in for the long game.
10 minutes pass as nothing really is going on, not a lot of north south hockey and mostly just grinding in each zone with a shot from the outside here and there. No big hits to note or any crazy action. The play finds itself into the Milita zone

The puck has been hemmed in the Militia zone for a good minute now and the defenders are exhausted.
Skottson tries to find a hole on the outside but is crushed to Fujikawa and the puck is sent free to Jerry Mander who is wide open in the slot AND SHOOT But wonce again O'Koivu gobbles it up. Jaakola wins the ensuing draw back but can't get it out and Gibbles FIRES IT Blocked in front by Klozoff again! The puck bounces right to the side and Selman IS WIDE OPEN |
