Kravtsov is going to the bench half-bent from an apparent stick to the ribs. Hopefully it's nothing.

Edit: He's back on ice.
 
Shit. Kravtsov voluntarily went back to the bench after 10 sec shift. 1st period is over. Hopefully he'll be back in the 2nd.
 
Kravtsov and Glinkin had a good chance as their PP just expired. Kravtsov missed a net on a bouncing puck.
 
Honest question, is there a ton more dangling in the KHL in general or does he really seem to find ways to work those moves into the flow of the game in ways others usually don't?

Too bad he didnt pass that one, guy would have had an open net. Then again it's more likely the player would have fanned on it so i don't blame him for shooting it himself.

In Kravtsov's defense: Several times already this season when he does pass, the player receiving the grade A scoring chance misses :laugh:
 
It was a short lived lead. Sochi scored against Kravtsov's line. Glinkin can't seem to be able to handle the puck while in stride. Traktor's D is bad, just allowed another similar chance but Demchenko made a stop on this occasion.
2:2

Glinkin was the worst Traktor player on the ice in Helsinki and in Omsk it wasn't much better. He's having a rough start to the season.

So far this season in the KHL:

Virta 1G, 4A in 9GP
Kravtsov 2G, 1A in 8GP

But I am happy everyone is seeing that Kravtsov is doing everything else right. He's been unlucky and while that is usually used as an excuse to defend a player in poor form, in Kravtsov's case it really makes sense. Last Monday against Jokerit he had a great chance but was just a little bit off balance and missed. When he came back to the bench he was furious. He smashed his stick on the bench, breaking it in half. The frustration was getting to him.

The reaction after scoring that goal today tells you all you need to know about Kravtsov. He keeps doing what he's good at. He keeps trying, keeps hustling, gets the puck, creates turnovers and then turns them into scoring chances, and now it paid off with a goal for himself. After 2 games where his team conceded 16 goals in total, getting a goal today takes the pressure off a bit. I expect him to build on this.

Bruh they're both busts, Nicky Jensen had 10 points in 9 games.
