Torpedo looks to stay hot while Dynamo Moscow shoots for #10!
Torpedo hits the road against Amur, a team that hasn’t had much luck this season, hoping to take its third straight. Later in the evening, Kunlun looks to do something it never has, namely defeat Dynamo Moscow. The boys from the capital are one of the hottest teams in the league. Not looking good for Kunlun.

Jokerit, Metallurg & Salavat shoot for their 10th wins this season!
Jokerit is undefeated in nine straight and now welcomes a red hot Ak Bars. Fireworks are promised! Meanwhile, Metallurg looks for its 8th straight win against a recently successful Barys team while Salavat is home again and confident it will beat somewhat flailing Avtomobilist side.
28 September 2021, 07:00 Preview

Light gameday features four teams coming off losses!
Not a team in action today was successful in its latest outing. Leading things in this lack of success is Kunlun, which hosts Admiral today looking to avoid its 6th straight defeat. The chances are actually good and not just because the boys from the east coast have lost three straight themselves, but rather because Admiral has had a real hard time defeating Kunlun on the road the past few years.
25 September 2021, 07:00 Preview

Eight games on tap with Jokerit looking for its 9th win in a row!
Jokerit is at home looking for its 9th straight win, and it welcomes a Sochi team that it has beaten six times in a row at home. You can’t ask for a better scenario. Is win number 9 basically a sure thing?

Light schedule sees Ak Bars shooting for its 4th straight victory!
It’s not been the start the club wanted and expected, but the boys from Kazan have already started to get things back on track. With a win today against a continually struggling Admiral team, they’ll have taken four in a row.
23 September 2021, 07:00 Preview

Big battle in store as SKA welcomes Salavat to St. Petersburg!
There should be fireworks tonight in the Baltic region when SKA looks for its 4th straight win against the very hot Salavat, which is nonetheless coming off its first loss of the season. About the same thing can be said for the match-up in Chelyabinsk, when Traktor hosts CSKA, also winners of 3 straight. However, Traktor is also coming off a seldom loss.
22 September 2021, 07:00 Preview

Wonderful Jokerit is shooting for its amazing 8th straight win!
No-one could’ve seen this coming when Jokerit kicked off the season with two straight losses, but after seven straight wins, the Finns are flying. They’re on the road tonight against Torpedo, which is hungry for a win after three straight losses. Dunno about you, but we’d say Jokerit has the upper hand here.
21 September 2021, 07:00 Preview

Two undefeated teams look to keep the fairy tale going!
Severstal may be at home, but they welcome a Salavat team that is looking for its 8th straight win. Going to be a tough one for the home team, loser of two in a row. At the same time, undefeated Dynamo Moscow will look to chalk up its 7th straight win and a home ice victory over Dinamo Riga looks like a likely scenario.
18 September 2021, 07:00 Preview

Salavat looks to make it seven in a row to begin the season!
They’re at home against a Dinamo Minsk team that has been a bit cold in recent games. Can Salavat make it a lucky number seven to start off the season?
17 September 2021, 07:00 Preview

Avtomobilist looks to win its 5th game in a row!
Yes, indeed, the 2-game losing streak to start the season is now a thing of the past. Avtomobilist has won four straight and now begins a 4-game homestand by welcoming Avangard, losers of three straight. Things should get real hot in Yekaterinburg.
16 September 2021, 07:00 Preview

Dynamo Moscow looks to break franchise record for best start of the season
Sibir has been a bit cold and now they’ll be hosting one of the league’s hottest teams. Will the stars be aligned properly for Dynamo Moscow?
15 September 2021, 07:00 Preview

Two games featuring two teams looking to end losing streaks!
Out east, Amur will be hosting Severstal looking to chalk up its first win of the season. At home for another two games, it’s time to get things moving in a positive direction against a team batting a little less than .500 thus far, otherwise it could be the sixth straight loss for Amur.
14 September 2021, 07:00 Preview

Eight games on tap with plenty of teams looking to change fortunes!
Winless Admiral kicks off the gameday hosting undefeated Dynamo Moscow, a game in which Vadim Shipachyov will look to become the all-time KHL leader in assists. Back west, a hot Jokerit starts a 3-game homestand against a tough Lokomotiv team while a thus far hapless Vityaz hopes to get on track against a Traktor team that is coming in off a strong start to the season.

Will Dynamo Moscow remain unbeaten after visiting the Far East?
The gameday will start at 10 am of Moscow time when Dynamo will play in Khabarovsk against Amur. Home team cannot beat the opponent for more than 11 years. Dinamo Riga will play first game after losing to Traktor (1-6), they will face Lokomotiv who has lost three in a row.
11 September 2021, 07:00 Preview

Which of Salavat and Neftekhimik will set a record for best club start?
The home team wants its fifth straight, the road team its fourth. Whoever gets it has set a new club record for best ever start. Still, gotta think Salavat has the upper hand.
10 September 2021, 07:00 Preview

Five games on schedule as teams still find themselves in the new season!
Metallurg welcomes a weary and beaten down Admiral club, which concludes an unsuccessful road trip while Severstal hosts a Traktor club that has a good handful of players on some very attractive scoring streaks.
9 September 2021, 07:00 Preview

Undefeated Salavat and Spartak Moscow face off for battle of the day!
They’ve each got three wins in three games. They’re both red hot. And now Salavat is home for the first time while Spartak is finally on the road. Who’ve you got?
8 September 2021, 07:00 Preview

Emotional Tuesday is followed by a full gameday with strong match-ups!
CSKA is on a bit of a role, and this isn’t the right time for Ak Bars to be hosting them, and yet here we are. Should be a doozy!

10 Year anniversary honors tragic day in Lokomotiv and KHL history
When Lokomotiv hosts Dinamo Minsk today, it will do so for the first time in 10 years and with heavy hearts. The tragic day in history back in 2011 left almost no corner of the hockey world untouched and cost the lives of the team, the staff, and all in the flight crew – people that are missed to this very day. Their spirits are to be honored as the team marches on into competition with their memory never forgotten.

The first real gameday of the 2021-2022 season takes flight and a number of teams are entering the fray with much different expectations. Both Kunlun and Dinamo Riga want to write a much different story than the one written last season. Jokerit and Lokomotiv will be looking to stay consistent and edge their way into the league’s top 7. Ak Bars and Ska are naturally here with Gagarin Cup ambitions, and they’ll be looking to strut their stuff right off the bat .

Crunch time is here as the series heads back to Moscow tied at two!
It was a wild Game 4 that saw CSKA jump out to a 2-0 lead only to need a goal in the very last second of the game to push things to overtime. There, Avangard managed to score in the 66th minute of play and now the teams head back to Moscow with this series coming down to a Best-of-Three.
24 April 2021, 07:00 Preview

Tight 2-1 victory has given CSKA the upper hand before Game 4!

22 April 2021, 07:00 Preview

Cinderella story continues to develop as pressure shifts to CSKA!

Avangard has truly done all its winning on the road recently and Game 1 was no exception. Having been off a few days, it took a while for CSKA to get up and running. Now the team needs to buck Avangard’s current road-winning ways and even this series up before heading to Balashikha.

7 April 2021, 07:00 Preview

Series moves to Balashikha with Ak Bars in quite a hole!
This was not part of the script for Ak Bars. Avangard winning both games in Kazan simply wasn’t what was supposed to happen and yet, this is where we’re at. Two tight games now see Avangard heading home looking to push things to match ball.
