Russian hockey referee, official and commentator Leonid Weisfeld told that Magnitogorsk “Metallurgist” disrespected fans by leaving the ice during a game against “Neftekhimika” after a forceful move against striker Daniil Vovchenko.
On Wednesday, in the Ivan Romazan Memorial match, with a score of 2:1 in favor of Metallurg, Andrei Razin led the team to the locker room after Vovchenko was hit by Roman Abrosimov and fell unconscious on the ice. The Metallurg hockey player was carried from the venue on a stretcher in a special fixation device. After watching the video replay, the judges found no violations of the rules on the part of Abrosimov. Metallurg suffered a technical defeat.
“I don’t see any violation here. I think teams should not be eliminated because it’s a lack of respect towards the public and the opponent,” Weisfeld told .
The new season of the FONBET KHL Championship starts on September 3.
