In the second period, Avtomobilist continued their offensive dominance. At 26:17, Nick Ebert scored to make it 3-0, assisted by Brendan Leipsic and Maxim Osipov. Despite Sibir's attempts to recover, they were repeatedly thwarted by Avtomobilist's solid defensive play and strong goaltending from Vladimir Galkin.

Just before the second period ended, Avtomobilist added another goal. Stepan Khripunov, assisted by Brooks Macek, scored with only 8 seconds remaining, giving Avtomobilist a commanding 4-0 lead heading into the final period.
