HC Vitkovice Ridera handled BK Mlada Boleslav 6-2 in regulation, scoring in every period and never trailing. Two goals in each of the three frames kept the visitors chasing from the fourth minute on.
David Cienciala opened it at 4 with Simon Stransky assisting, and Patrik Demel made it 2-0 at 18 off a Tomas Pavelka feed. Felikss Gavars cut it to 2-1 at 21, but Anthony Nellis answered a minute later; Antoine Morand pulled Boleslav back to 3-2 at 26 before Chad Yetman restored the two-goal cushion at 29 — the turning point, after which the visitors never scored again. Jan Sir made it 5-2 at 54 and Vitkovice added a sixth at 57.
Pavelka was the connective piece with assists on both the Demel and Yetman goals, while Yetman finished with a goal and the helper on Nellis's marker. Vitkovice's 4-2 middle period, and the quick reply to each Boleslav goal, carried the night.
