Moscow CSKA swept Slovan Bratislava in four games. Nikita Zaitsev stepped in like he likes to to and fired a blast, getting the clincher in a come from behind game. He led CSKA defencemen in shots on goal for the four games, with 6, and this was his first point of the playoffs.

In January, [it was strongly rumoured](https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/nikita-zaitsev-future-toronto-maple-leaf/) that Zaitsev will sign with the Leafs when his KHL contract expires at the end of the playoffs.
