Dinamo Riga’s Second Home Game Highlights

Dinamo Riga’s second home game turned into a goaltending duel between Atlant Mytischi’s Ray Emery and Dinamo’s own Edgars Masalskis. Emery finally succumed to a couple of goals in the last 10 minutes while Masalskis came up with the shutout. Final score 2-0.

3rd period highlights with some analysis in Latvian. Woohoo, you get to hear what Latvian sounds like (and no, it’s not a Russian dialect… if you speak Russian you do not understand a thing in Latvian).

Highlights of the whole game recorded by a dedicated fan with a camcorder from the stands. Gives a really good idea of how good the crowd atmosphere is in Riga.

KHL Game Ends in a Brawl, New Record for Penalty Minutes (277!)

Dinamo Riga’s atrocious 5-game season starting road trip to the Far East and Siberia finally ended with a bad loss in their 2nd game in Novosibirsk 6-1.

It appears that the Latvian players finally had enough of all this long distance traveling business and took their frustration out on Sibir’s players.

This fight actually has some truly hilarious moments. Pay attention to the giant #27 of Dinamo Riga Ronald Petrovicky (in white) and the tiny #22 of Sibir Novosibirsk Mikhail Anisin in blue. Then watch what Dinamo’s #83 Matt Ellison does to Anisin after that tussle is over.
