MOL League: DVTK goes up 2-0 win an OT win

After Saturday night's game one win, Diósgyőr was hoping to take a two games to zero lead in the MOL League finals. DVTK had Dávid Gyenes in net and the rest of the lineup stayed the same. MAC also did not make any changes in goal with Bence Bálizs in net, however this time Nikoe Saarenpaa was on the first line with Jeff Hayes and Ian McDonald, the second line now was Attila Németh taking Saarenpaa’s spot and Dávid Szappanos playing on the third line. The fourth line and the d-man combinations stayed the same as Tamás Pozsgai and Tomas Klempa were already out and Robi Egyed picked up an injury before the game.

MAC managed to do in the opening minutes of the game what they were not able to do for sixty minutes in game one, and that was to score twice. The Budapest club jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the opening minutes of the game. McDonald skated in, waited for his line mates, left the puck for Hayes who fired it in from the slot, less than a minute later McDonald did it himself as he fired one in from the blueline as Gyenes saw little or nothing of the shot. DVTK looked to recover from that initial punch but were not able to put one past Bálizs, they had a short handed chance when Jon Booras skate in on a breakaway but Bálizs made the save.
