Yekaterinburg got going in the second period on an Aaron Palushaj goal, via Gilbert Brule and Anton Lazarev. Nizhnekamsk tied it on a Stanislav Kalashnikov goal, passed from Matt Anderson. Neftekhimik took the lead as Evgeny Grigorenko scored, with the help of Anderson. Avtomobilist retied it in the third period on an Alexander Nesterov goal, fueled by Sergei Gusev. Neftekhimik won 3-2 with a shootout goal from Andrei Ivanov. The three stars were Anderson, Grigorenko, and Kalashnikov.
Down in Magnitogorsk, Metallurg welcomes Lada Togliatti. Jeff Glass and Alexei Murygin receive the starting nods. Magnitogorsk dented the scoreboard in the second period on a Mikhail Yunkov goal, made possible by Denis Platonov and Alexei Bereglazov. Metallurg added on with a Danis Zaripov goal, courtesy of Jan Kovar and Evgeny Biryukov. This was all they needed for a 2-0 win, with the three stars being Murygin (26 save shutout), Yunkov, and Zaripov.
