Barys kicks off a 4-game homestand against old rival Salavat, which will once again be looking to have a big word in who wins the Gagarin Cup this season. The same is the case for Avtomobilist, which hosts a Metallurg team that’s got its eye on contention as well.
Sibir hits the road for the first of four straight and will test its metal against Traktor while Dynamo Moscow will be sporting its sharp new Blue-and-white uniforms against the men from Minsk, a team that is certainly hoping to have a much better season than last.
Make sure you catch today’s action!
