final
Avtomobilist Yekaterinburg
3:4 (1:0, 1:1, 1:3)
HC Donbass Donetsk
Monday 03.12.2012, 13:00 • KRK Uralets • KHL
     
    Avtomobilist blew a 2 goal lead in the third as Donbass came alive and shocked the home team with three unanswered goals.

    The game had a steady flow of players to the penalty box, but both teams found themselves shooting off target and not capitalizing on early opportunities.

    But Donbass roared alive in the third with Pettersson starting the comeback with a shot that snuck its way through Lobanov's legs.

    Final shots for the game were 30 for Donbass and 23 for Avtomobilist.

    Donbass returns to action on Dec. 5 as they travel to Traktor. Avtomobilist is at home again against Spartak on Dec.5.
