*-> I'm hearing whispers out of the KHL that Lokomotiv Yaroslavl fully intend on playing through the tragedy and using some of their MHL talent as well as an "expansion draft" scenario the league has proposed. The rumored draft would consist of any players not protected by their club. I'm hearing nothing is official yet as most North American media are reporting.
