Platt banned for 1 game

In response to a request from the Refereeing Department, the KHL Disciplinary Committee has investigated an episode from the 40th minute of Friday’s Gagarin Cup final series Game 5 in Moscow. The incident passed unnoticed by the officials, but video footage clearly shows CSKA Geoff Platt using his stick to strike an opponent while the referee’s attention was focused on a face-off.
