The KHL Disciplinary Committee has studied an incident from the third period of Tuesday night’s game in Riga between Dinamo and Atlant Moscow Region. In the 46th minute, Riga forward Andris Dzerins was left nursing a bloodied face after a deliberate blow to the head by Atlant forward Igor Radulov. The Committee supports the referee’s decision to punish the hit with a major plus game misconduct penalty (5+20 minutes) for causing injury by checking to the head or neck area. Due to the serious nature of the foul, Igor Radulov has also been suspended for 4 games.
