Metallurg Novokuznetsk 2-1 CSKA
Metallurg Novokuznetsk showed a confident performance and deserved a home win against CSKA.

With 16 seconds to play in the first Pavel Kanarsky finished a great counter attack with a shot in the empty net. For Kanarsky it was the first goal in this season and the third in KHL history. CSKA managed only to score in the end of the game; on a 4-on-4 play Sergei Shirokov cut the Metallurg lead.
