UFA, 28 March 2018. /Bashinform News Agency, Daria Petrova/. The decisive, seventh game of the series between the Ufa Salavat Yulaev and Chelyabinsk Traktor began with a minute of silence in memory of the victims of the fire that occurred in Kemerovo.

The most beautiful moment of the first period was a goal scored by Linus Omark. The Swedish player managed to beat several Traktor players including the goalkeeper Francous.

However, Salavat Yulaev failed to consolidate the advantage. Two minutes before the end of the first period, the puck was thrown by Richard Gynge into the Scrivens' net.

During the second period, both teams had chances to come forward, but the Chelyabinsk crew succeeded. Two minutes before the break, Grigory Panin shot down an attack of the visiting team. The Chelyabinsk team quickly capitalized on the power play and had a precious lead. The score was 1: 2. The puck was recorded by Linus Videll.

In the third period, the Ufa players were forced to attack. But the Chelyabinsk defense always managed to bring down the onslaught.

Two minutes before the end of the match, Erkka Westerlund, hoping to turn the game into overtime and save the series, replaced Scrivens with the sixth fielder. But despite the Salavat Yulaev’s activity, it was unable to equalize the score.

HC Salavat Yulaev completes the season; HC Traktor will play with the Ak Bars (Kazan) in the finals of the East.
