CSKA won a major victory over Ak Bars in the second match of the final series of the KHL playoffs. Despite the absence of the injured Maxim Mamin, Sergei Fedorov's wards scored a puck in each of the periods, and they themselves did not miss even once.

Adam Reideborn went above praise and saved all 29 shots on goal. Mikhail Grigorenko, the top scorer and sniper of the current Gagarin Cup, scored a goal and an assist.
