    44:34
    Goal for Atlant!
    As soon as I said that SKA were looking more confident they let their opponents back into the game again! NIKITA SOSHNIKOV squeezes the puck across the face of goal from a tight angle on the left, and the unfortunate Vadim Shipachyov bundles it into his own net! It's 5:4!
     
    36:39
    Goal for SKA!
    Just like that SKA have regained their two goal lead! Dmitriy Shikin poorly tips a wrister from the high slot to his right hand post, and ARTEMIY PANARIN gleefully punishes him! It's 5:3! Assists- Vadim Shipachyov and Maxim Chudinov
     
    34:26
    Goal for Atlant!
    Atlant's powerplay is working almost perfectly today! Again SKA go missing defensively as ANDREAS ENGQVIST twists at the tip of the slot, and rifles the puck into the left hand corner! Powerplay goal and it's 4:3! Assists- Yaroslav Dyblenko and Sergey Shemlyov
     
    30:08
    Goal for SKA!
    What a quite beautiful goal that is! SKA are rolling now! Roman Cervenka just behind the right faceoff circle splays it across to the far post, and TONY MARTENSSON deftly flicks it in! It's 4:2! Assists- Maxim Chudinov and Roman Cervenka
     
    27:45
    Goal for SKA!
    Now SKA have woken up again! Brilliant play behind the net by Tony Martensson finds the open ROMAN CERVENKA to the right of the crease, and the latter catches out Dmitriy Shikin near post! It's 3:2! Assists- Tony Martensson
     
    24:12
    Goal for Atlant!
    There has been a feeling that this goal was coming! ARTYOM VORONIN picks up the loose puck at the high slot, fires in first time and it sneaks between the goalkeeper's pads! It's 2:2! Assists- Mikhail Glukhov
     
    07:50
    Goal for Atlant!
    The arena is completely silenced as the visitors get themselves right back into it! The puck is flashed across the slot from behind the net on the left, and ARTYOM CHERNOV at the far post beats Alexander Salak! Powerplay goal and it's 2:1! Assists- Andreas Engqvist and Sergey Shmelyov
     
    06:15
    Goal for SKA!
    Atlant can't afford to keep taking silly penalties against this team! Dmitriy Shikin fumbles a wrister from the left faceoff circle, and the rebound falls right on to the stick of ALEXEY PONIKAROVSKIY who sweeps it in! Powerplay goal and it's 2:0! Assists- Viktor Tikhonov and Ilya Kovalchuk
     
    04:00
    Goal for SKA!
    The hosts are off to a flyer! Clever patient build up play tees up ARTEMIY PANARIN on the left faceoff circle, and he slaps it home clinically first time! Powerplay goal and it's 1:0! Assists- Ilya Kovalchuk and Vadim Shipachyov
