Mogo Riga handled HS Riga 9-1 in regulation, and the game was effectively over inside the opening 20 minutes. Five first-period goals gave the visitors a cushion no amount of pushback was going to dent.
HS Riga did find the game's only home goal in the first, but the period closed 5-1 for Mogo and the margin only widened from there. Mogo added two more in the second to lead 7-1 after 40 minutes, then two again in the third to close it out at 9-1.
The number that frames it: nine goals across three periods, with at least two in every frame and none conceded after the opening period. HS Riga's single tally in the first stands as their only answer of the night.
