    Sergey Tereschenko does get Metallurg on the board in the shootout, as he fires the puck hard into the left hand corner for 3-1!
     
    Yegor Dubrovskiy cuts from the right to the left and once again beats the goalkeeper!
     
    Vladimir Malenkikh for Metallurg strikes the puck very early, and it's easy for Vitaly Koval to stick wide
     
    Now it's Teemu Hartikainen's turn, and he whips the puck into the right hand corner for 2-0!
     
    Chris Lee is first up for Metallurg, but cutting to the back hand he can't lift the puck over the goalkeeper's left pad!
     
    Igor Skorokhodov steps up first for the hosts, and he beats Vasiliy Koshechkin five hole!
     
    58:25
    Vasiliy Koscheskin has now left the Metallurg for the extra skater with time running down!
     
    57:21
    Zaripov! How didn't he score! A traditionally clinical move between Sergey Mozyakin, Jan Kovar leaves Danis Zaripov with a practically open net at the right of the slotm but he hits only the side netting!
     
    52:45
    Lee! Chris Lee cuts open the entire Salavat defence skating through on his own, but he hits the goalkeeper's chest when one on one!
     
    47:31
    Goal for Salavat Yulaev! The home fans in the Ufa Arena leap to their feet as Anton Khlystov dishes YEGOR DUBROVSKIY sprinting down the right, the latter cuts to the slot and slides the puck under Vasiliy Koshechkin! It's 2-0! Assists- Denis Khlystov and Alexander Mereskin
     
    39:58
    Chris Lee now on the right faceoff circle smacks his slapshot when completely open directly into Vitaly Koval's chest! And it's now the final couple of seconds of the second set of 20 minutes
     
    39:17
    Kovar! Moving in from the left of the crease Jan Kovar waits for the goalkeeper to go down, he has almost an empty net to fire in to but somehow he loses control of it!
     
    38:20
    The numbers have already been evened up though, for high sticking Igor Skorokhodov has been penalised
     
    35:50
    Despite this being a friendly match tempers are starting to raise! The referees just manage to break up a possible fight, but a 5+20 penalty has been handed out to Tim Brent for punching his opponent. Oskar Osala has also been punished for tripping, and Andrey Zubarev for roughing is also off to the penalty box making it a four on three Salavat powerplay
     
    33:44
    Antipin! A sweeping move which sees the puck chucked to the left hand post leaves Viktor Antipin with almost an empty corner of the net to aim at, but he can't get the better of the goalkeeper!
     
    32:02
    Yakutseniya! How didn't he hit the target! Picking up the loose puck on the right Maxim Yakutseniya cuts to the crease, but with only the goalkeeper to beat he smashes the bar!
     
    31:26
    Just after Anton Slepyshev was causing mayhem on the Metallurg crease we have another penalty, Alexey Bereglazov for hitting his opponent has been penalised
     
    26:42
    The numbers have now been evened up, Jan Kovar for tripping has been sent to the penalty box
     
    24:27
    There's a 5+20 penalty here which is a bit unusual for a friendly match, as Denis Bodrov for elbowing his opponent has been sent to the dressing room!
     
    20:47
    Lee! Patient build up play eventually finishes with Chris Lee slapping in the puck from the tip of the slot, and Vitaly Koval makes a wonderful save to keep his team ahead!
     
    20:08
    The second period gets started with another penalty straight away, for interference Denis Khlystov has been penalised with a two minute minor
     
    19:58
    Francis Pare twisting around by the left hand post tries with all his might to stuff the puck under the netminder, but somehow Vitaly Koval manages to hold on! And it's now the final seconds of the first stanza
     
    18:48
    Teemu Hartikainen of Salavat for holding is the latest to be sent to the penalty box
     
    18:27
    Mozyakin! Sergey Mozyakin with a beautiful move slips in between his defender, he has only Vitaly Koval to beat but he shoots wide of the right corner!
     
    14:57
    Salavat are showing quick pacy movement when attacking and they've got themselves another powerplay, Chris Lee for tripping is the guilty party
     
    14:27
    Goal for Salavat Yulaev! Yaroslav Khabarov makes a shocking pass by his own net, he inadvertently feeds DENIS KHLYSTOV who skates in and wrists the puck clinically past the goalkeeper into the left hand corner! It's 1-0!
     
    11:08
    There's another penalty here and it's again against Metallurg, for tripping Yaroslav Khabarov has been ordered to sit down for two minutes
     
    10:19
    All of a sudden Maxim Yakutseniya on the right has a shorthanded two on one for himself, he dishes Mikhail Yunkov on the slot but the latter makes poor contact!
     
    10:03
    The second penalty of the day is committed by Grigoriy Shafigulin of Metallurg, who has been called for holding
     
    07:13
    Dubrovskiy! It's a two on one for the hosts down the left flank, Yegor Dubrovskiy can feed a team mate on the right but he goes it himself and is denied by the goaltender!
     
    04:21
    Despite Metallurg shading the early exchanges they're now going on the penalty kill, for hitting his opponent on the head with his stick Tim Brent has received a 2+10 penalty
     
    01:08
    Osala! A poor turnover directly by their own net lets in Oskar Osala, but right on the slot he smashes the puck wide of the right hand post! Chris Lee then drives it in from distance, but that's comfortable for Vitaly Koval
