Moscow up 3-2 in quarters vs Helsinki

[Telkster 550]

The Moscow Menace hope to see out round 1 in game 6 vs the Helsinki Titans. Their most recent game saw the Menace shut out the Titans in what was a fairly comfortable game for Moscow, but they have had their fair share of iffy games in the series as well. Game 3 saw Moscow get into penalty trouble and the Titans raced away with the 5-1 victory. Helsinki capitalized on the power play as well and went 3/5 on the man advantage. game 1 saw Moscow fall into a similar situation as well, losing 4-1 and giving up 2 goals on 5 penalty kills. The key to winning the series for Moscow seems to be staying out of the box and improving on the PK. The Menace do have the stronghold in the series now even as slight underdogs coming into it. Dan Baillie leads the team in goals with 4 in the first 5 games so far in the series.
