The goalkeeper of the club "Anahaim Maita Dax" Jean-Sebastian Gieigan again became the main character of the series against Minnesota, hiding at one of their oldest records of the National Hockey League. His third consecutive “dry” match in the final of the Western Conference (Zhiger has already reflected 98 attacks 'savages' at a row) allowed the “mighty ducks” to bring the score in the confrontation with Minnesota to 3-0, and they now need only one victory to enter the league finals.
This is the first cup season for a 25 -year -old goalkeeper, who has been kept in integrity for 213 minutes 17 seconds - from the sixth match of the series against the 'Dallas'. It is interesting that the eternal record for this indicator is still belonging to Smith's norms from Detroit, and was set in 1936 - 248: 32. But this is not all: the last time to open a “dry” series in the playoffs, three matches managed the Toronto goalkeeper in 1945.
In the match played last night in Moscow time, the Anahaim hockey players managed to abandon four unrequited goals. Veteran Steve Ruchchin, twice Paul Karia, as well as Russian Stanislav Chistov, who was assisted by his compatriot Vitaly Vishnevsky, distinguished themselves. And the best player in the reporting meeting, of course, was recognized as a jiger who reflected all 35 shots.
The next match of the series, in which the ducks can get a ticket to the final, will be held on Friday evening at the Anaheim site.
