Teemu Hartikainen was the star of the show with a double, and Andrey Vishnevskiy and Sergey Zinovyev managed to score also in that period. The fate of the match was already decided before the third period but Nikita Filatov scored another goal for the Ufa side, before at the end Aleksey Mikhnov got a consolation goal for the hosts.
