In the second period of Wednesday’s game in Zagreb between Medvescak and Lokomotiv, home forward Gilbert Brule received a major plus game misconduct penalty (5+20 minutes) for slashing Yaroslavl defenseman Ilya Lyubushkin. As this was the Canadian’s second 20-minute penalty of the current season, he incurs an automatic one-game suspension for repeat offending. Gilbert Brule must therefore miss tonight’s home game versus HC Sochi.
