KHL coach ejected for throwing water bottle, tries to blame assistant

Lokomotiv head coach Alexei Kudashov let his frustrations get the best of him Monday in his team's Gagarin Cup series against SKA.

It's unclear what exactly set him off, but Kudashov responded by throwing a water bottle onto the ice and accidentally hit SKA forward Ilya Kablukov in the process, leading to him being ejected. Before leaving the bench, Kudashov motioned toward his assistant, who was all too happy to take the blame (the referees weren't fooled, though).

Lokomotiv went on to lose 2-1 in overtime, falling to 3-0 in the series.
