Myers gets a stick on it! Bojo fires one wide of Prikulis’ net moments later, but the Jets hold firm, and the power play comes to an end without incident. WKP'S first 5v4 of the night comes to nothing.

Back to even strength, the Jets are looking to wrest the momentum from the Platoon, but it’s Prikulis who has to look alert to make two saves in quick succession from Zallerras Szlerchek and Oliver Pettyfer. Still 0-0 here in Game 5, with WKP pushing for the go-ahead goal.
8th minute
The game is beginning to open up now, and we have chances at both ends! Winnipeg on the offensive, but again Schmidt makes the save—but he can’t hold it! The puck pops loose and Linkos stretches to tuck it past the stranded goalie!
P.S. I'm going to take a sizeable (~15 minute) break in between periods to allow people more time to catch this while it's happening. 'tis kind of a big game!

Action hotting up as both goalies have to make saves within the space of 10 seconds, but still no goal. Schmidt is getting an insane amount of help from Jim Lahey.

Like if you give me an hour before the 3rd period I'd be down.
Just sending a file to my boss.
I can take an elongated smoke break between periods. I might even fix myself a drink or two. B) I don't want to make it painfully slow for everyone else, though.

Smirnov is hit by McDavid, takes exception to the check, and lashes out with his stick! Who does he think he is, Milan Lucic?! Power play to Winnipeg as Smirnov goes to the box for slashing!

Aaaaaand NOTHING doing on the PP. Absolutely nothing. That was poor.
Final minute of the first period
The Jets have been the better side in the first period, and have outshot their opponents by nine to three, but the Platoon are looking to finish the period strongly as Winnipeg turn the puck over in their own zone. Smirnov pauses to look for a pass, and picks out Szlerchek in the slot!
Save! And that will bring a largely uneventful period to a close. Some excellent goaltending on display, but neither side able to take advantage of their power play opportunities.
End of period 0 : 0
Shots = 4 : 9
We'll be back in 15 minutes for the 2nd period! I've to finish writing up the end of the game, and I'll see how long I can hold off for others to get here without pissing off everyone who is here. Get yourselves a beer!
