Hockey player Ak Bars called Sibir’s point deduction unexpected

Before “Ak Barsa » Semyon Koshelev admitted that for him the deduction of four points from Novosibirsk Sibir for exceeding the limit imposed on foreign players was a surprise.

Previously, the KHL canceled the results of four matches of “Sibir” in the Fonbet KHL championship and awarded the team technical defeats. At the same time, the Novosibirsk team lost two of the four indicated matches in regular time, so its results remained in force. Thus, the club lost four points.

The league’s decision was prompted by the request for a single match exceeding the limit established for foreign players. In two meetings with Barys, as well as in matches with Avangard and Avtomobilist, Canadians Andy Andreoff, Taylor Beck, Trevor Murphy and Fedor Gordeev, who have a Russian passport and American sports citizenship, had the status of a foreign player in Sibir .

— Were you surprised that the KHL took four points from Sibir and fined him?

– Yes, it was unexpected. It is not my place to evaluate this situation, and even less to criticize anyone. You just have to accept it as a fact,” Koshelev said, as quoted by Metaratings.ru.

After the KHL’s decision, Sibir fell out of the playoff zone in the Eastern Conference standings.
