IPK Iisalmi took a 2-1 decision at Imatran Ketterä, settled in overtime after sixty minutes produced nothing but a first-period trade. Neither side found a second-period or third-period goal, and the extra frame decided it.
Both teams scored once in the opening period, and it stood 1-1 after twenty minutes. That scoreline held through the second and third — 1-1 after two, 1-1 after three — before IPK's winner in overtime.
The number that frames the night: 120 scoreless minutes of regulation between the two clubs after the first intermission. Goaltending on both ends carried the game to 3-on-3, where IPK finally converted.
