    And there's the final buzzer, a thumping 6-1 victory for Metallurg Magnitigorsk against Spartak Moscow! This game was all sewn up in the second period. In a time difference of just five minutes Metallurg managed to score four unanswered goals from Chris Lee, Francis Pare, Danis Zaripov and Evgeniy Timkin. In the final period Spartak got a goal for pride from Vladimir Peshekhonov but Metallurg then scored twice more from Pare again and Viktor Antipin. Join us tomorrow for more KHL action, see you then!
