Recap

Looking back at Friday's game, Magnitogorsk lost 3-2 to Yugra Khanty-Mansiysk.  Malkin went pointless and angry, as did Sergei Gonchar who accumulated 14 PIM including a misconduct.  Here's the video recap from Friday's game (note Malkin slamming his stick and shouting at the ref in the end):

Now on to today's game.  Magnitogorsk traveled to Astana looking for their first win since the Euro Hockey Tour break.  Unfortunately, there was no live stream for this game, so here are the pertinent stats and another video recap:

Malkin - 2g (including 1 short handed), 1a, 8 shots, 20/28 faceoffs, 23:08 TOI, 2 PIM

Gonchar - no points, no shots, 20:52 TOI, 4 PIM, it also appears that Gonchar held on a breakaway late in the 3rd period but the Barys penalty shot was unsuccessful
