Rival coaches brawl before preseason game.

Apparently there are no meaningless games in the KHL.

According to Yahoo Sports' Sean Leahy, Neftekhimik and Torpedo head coaches Yevgeni Popik and Peter Skudra got into a fight prior to their respective team's preseason games on Sunday.

This is what Skudra, who is a former NHLer, had to say to Sport-Express, which is roughly translated:

“After removing Ilina Popihin ran to me with any complaints, I began to answer. He ran, faced foreheads … That’s all. He struck – I had to answer!”

The best part of the video may be when the cameraman decides to turn the camera around to catch the two coaches going at it.

It is going to be an interesting season that's for sure.
