Varlamov played first two games in KHL

Varlamov played first two games in KHLThe lone player of the Colorado Avalanche in the KHL had appeared in two games yet.

Firstly, 24 year Russian goaltender Semyon Varlamov showed his great NHL skills. He saved 38 of 39 shots in his first KHL game ever. It was the perfect performance. Lokomotiv Yaroslavl won the game 2:1 over Dinamo Minsk.

Few hours ago, Varly was back in the action. Unfortunately, the opponents from the Omsk hockey team had lucky day. We have to underline Varly had not chance and got four goals from 26 shots. Overall, his save percentage is 92.3 % and GAA 2.51 after two games.

Lokomotiv is kind of defensive team and we think Vitalij Kolesnik could be in the net back in the next game.
