The KHL has suspended Barys Astana coach Andrei Nazarov for six games and levied a "substantial fine" after his outburst during a game against Admiral Vladivostok.

According to a rough translation of the release on the KHL's official website, Nazarov "showed aggression and showed obscene gestures towards referees and spectators" and was ejected from the game. His conduct violated Rule 551 b of the KHL rulebook.

Admiral was also fined for failing to provide adequate security measures at the arena.
