Head coach of SKA Romain Rotenberg reported that the attacker Marat Khairoulline was injured during the Fonbet KHL championship match against Siberia.
The match took place on Wednesday in Novosibirsk and ended with a score of 3:0 in favor of SKA. The 27-year-old forward left the ice in the first period after being hit in the face by a puck.
– We didn’t take any risks. We don’t know what’s wrong with him yet. He went to the hospital, we will do a CT scan. The guys played together for Khairullin. We hope that everything will be fine, but in such cases it is better not to take risks, the puck hit him in the jaw. It happens – that’s hockey,” Rotenberg said in the post-match press conference.
This season, Khairullin played 9 matches for SKA and scored 2 (1+1) points with a utility indicator of “-1”.
