The KHL Disciplinary Commitee has handed out its first suspension of the season. The recipient is Salavat Yulaev defenseman Denis Bodrov, who was sent to the locker room in the 38th minute of Thursday’s game in Astana for an illegal hit by the boards on Barys forward Roman Starchenko.
The Committee upheld the referee’s decision to punish the foul with a major plus game misconduct penalty (5+20 minutes) for checking from behind, and has disqualified Bodrov for one game.
