Belarus: Minsk Dynamo's starting goalie returns to training

Goalkeeper Alexei Kolosov returns to training after suspension

Alexei Kolosov, the starting goalie for Minsk Dynamo, has returned to training after serving a two-game suspension. Kolosov was suspended for his part in a brawl during a game against HC Dinamo Moskva on September 15. Kolosov was one of three players suspended for the incident. He missed Minsk Dynamo's games against Avtomobilist Yekaterinburg and Metallurg Magnitogorsk.

Kolosov is expected to start in goal for Minsk Dynamo's next game, which is against SKA Saint Petersburg on September 22. Kolosov has a 2.50 goals-against average and a .910 save percentage in six games this season. He has been Minsk Dynamo's starting goalie since the start of the season.

Minsk Dynamo is currently in last place in the KHL's Western Conference with a record of 2-4-0. The team has allowed the most goals in the KHL this season with 25. Kolosov's return to the lineup should help to improve Minsk Dynamo's defense.

Kolosov was given a two-game suspension for his role in the brawl. Shipachyov was given a one-game suspension. The KHL also fined both teams.
