    Despite that penalty shootout SKA have indeed beaten Atlant 3-1 in the pre-season tournament the Bashkortostan Cup! After trailing to Vyacheslav Kozlov's second period goal, markers from Anton Burdasov, Maxim Chudinov and Alexander Kucheryavenko gave SKA the win. Thanks for following the game with us, until next time. (15:22:23)
     
    Mikhail Glukhov tries to go five hole on the netminder, but Ilya Ezhov shuts his pads in time!
     
    Roman Cervenka takes his time, but his backhander to the right is stopped by the goalkeeper's left pad!
     
    Sergey Shmelyov now tries his luck against Ilya Ezhov, but the netminder's glove keeps him out!
     
    Patrick Thoresen skates in with real speed, fakes an early shot but the goalkeeper reads the play and saves!
     
    Igor Radulov is first for Atlant, and he goes upstairs on Ilya Ezhov for 1-0!
     
    Ilya Kovalchuk steps up first for SKA, but pulling to the backhand he's denied by Atte Engren!

    58:53

    Nikita Soshnikov charges all the way around the left hand boards, twists right around the net but his wraparound attempt is stoned by Ilya Ezhov!
