One of several rebounds came to NIKOLAI BUSHUYEV who fired the puck into the net from short distance for his second goal of the afternoon!
Assisted by Linus Videll and Anatoly Nikontsev.

Assisted by Anton Glinkin and Alexei Bondarev.
Shorthanded the guests score the equalizer! After receiving a pass close to the own blue line NIKOLAI BUSHUYEV had the middle lane open till the Traktor net and ended the break away by deking out Michael Garnett to the right and scoring the 1-1!
Shots on goal: Traktor 7 – Severstal 9
With a powerful shot from the left circle towards the right top corner ANTON GLINKIN beats guest goalie Stepanek to score the early 1-0 for the home side!

Today's opponents Severstal Cherepovets had less high expectations but their start was also not as good as they hoped. The team is only 12th in Western Conference with 24 points in 19 games.
Traktor won only 2 of the 7 October games by now but their 2-1 home win in their last match on Sunday against Lokomotiv Yaroslavl gives them hope for more.
Severstal was a bit more successful than Traktor in October by winning 4 of their 9 games. In their four game road trip they faced Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk (2-1), Salavat Yulayev Ufa (3-8) and Metallurg Magnitogorsk (2-4) so far.
An interesting and open game without any favourites can be expected. Stay tuned for the start of the match in a couple of minutes!
