Kosice takes the lead

The score was opened in powerplay by Bartanus, but it was mostly due to Kosice´s defender Homer, who pushed the puck by mistake into his own goal. Slovan Bratislava´s players pushed and pushed but HC Kosice´s goalie Jaroslav Hylak was against them. He showed some good catches. Richard Jencik in the 34th minute after a solo break into Slovan´s defence scored a goal and equalized the score. After a beautiful pass from Spilar, Dravecky scored the leading goal. Finally, Bartos scored a shorthanded goal and closed the score in the third final match.

Kosice is now in lead 2 to 1. They are also on track to reach their fourth tittle in a row. Most probably it is the final play off for HC Slovan Bratislava  in Slovak Extraliga, cause they´re highly interested into joining Russian´s KHL next season. Fourth game is on schedule at friday 13th April.

HC Slovan Bratislava - HC Kosice 1:3 (1:0,0:1,0:2) 1:2 on games

Goals: 14. Bartanus - 34. Jencik, 48. Dravecky, 53. Bartos 10 021 att.
