Now Jokerit puts pressure to Slovan end and they have lots of good spots to score. Not even luck they have at the moment.

Puck bounces dangerously at Pogge's net. At the end Pogge covers the puck.

Jensen shoots in a hurry, goes wide.

Jokerit challenges that decision and now it is being reviewed.

Lauridesen makes a nice goal but it is disallowed since Huhtala was in the crease.

Teams at full strenth.
