Friendly match. SKA - Spartak - 4:1

Finishing off their Novogorsk training camp, SKA took on HC Spartak Moscow in a special training game. All three of SKA-1946's youth players were included in the line-up, with Alexei Melnichuk backing Evgeny Ivannikov up and Kirill Petkov and Pavel Kukshtel both involved. Pavel Datsyuk sat this one out.

It was a tight match all the way through, with Spartak taking a first period lead through Ryan Stoa. It took SKA a long time to get back on terms, but at the start of the third, Alexander Dergachyov made it a tied game. With only ten minutes remaining, Sergei Plotnikov netted a powerplay goal, and late on, Evgeny Ketov scored two goals of his own to seal a 4:1 SKA win! The team will now return to Saint Petersburg.
