HK “Rīga” plays with two incomplete substitutions for the second evening in a row and wins “SKA-1946” team – Hockey

“Riga” won 4: 3 (1: 1, 1: 1, 1: 1, 1: 0) at home with “SKA-1946” in overtime.

The day before, the Russian team was superior with 4: 2, although initially Riga was in the lead with 2: 0.

After Nikita Diškovskis’ litter, the guests took the lead in the 13th minute, but the home team realized a numerical majority in the 18th minute, Patrick Zabusov stood out. The guests also started the second period more actively, with Yegor Gurzanov putting the Russian club in the lead again in the fifth minute, but less than two minutes later Ernest Ošenieks reached 2: 2 with a shot from the blue line.

In the middle of the last third, the guests took the lead again, but seven minutes before the final whistle, Jānis Švanenbergs threw the goal exactly, who was the first at the puck to hit the goal post before.

In extra time, the puck was more often stopped by the people of Riga, who also bore the fruits of victory in the penultimate minute. Rūdolfs Polcs dealt with two “SKA-1946” hockey players on the opponents’ blue line and a moment later sent the puck to the upper right corner of the goal.

For the second day in a row, “Rīga” competed with ten field players and two goal men in this game. It is significant that the Rigans made 34 shots on the opponents’ goal in this match, while the guests responded with 19 broadcasts.

Ēriks Vītols started the game in the goal, but in order to save his strength, Bruno Bruvēris also went on the field several times.

“Riga” with 28 points in 26 games in the Western Conference takes the fifth place, but “SKA-1946” in 18 matches is two points less, which gives the eighth position.

Last season’s MHL team “Riga” head coach Raimonds Vilkoits and his assistant Alexander Niživijs joined the Continental Hockey League (KHL) team Riga “Dinamo” coaching staff, while Valērijs Kuļibaba and Sergejs Durdins took over their duties.

Last season, the Riga team took the seventh place in the regular conference in the Western Conference, but in the first round of the playoffs, Yaroslavl’s “Loko” gave up 0-3.
