Damir Muratuly Ryspayev (Kazakh: Дамир Мұратұлы Ырыспаев, romanized: Damir Mūratūly Yryspaev; born 25 April 1995) is a Kazakh professional ice hockey defenceman currently playing for Nomad Astana of the Supreme Hockey League (VHL).[1]
Brawl vs Kunlun Red Star
[edit ]On 8 August 2016, during an exhibition game against Kunlun Red Star, Ryspayev started a brawl that caused the game to get cancelled after just three minutes.[2] The brawl began when Ryspayev punched Tomáš Marcinko as he was checking him, and escalated when Ryspayev decided to attack the other Red Star players, seemingly at random.[2] Eventually, after trying to attack players on the Red Star bench, Ryspayev was ejected from the game with the rest of the game getting cancelled.[2] He was suspended by the KHL for the remainder of the exhibition season and faced a hearing for further discipline.[2] On 18 August 2016 Ryspayev received a lifetime ban from the league, with a representative of the league's Council of Directors stating that the league could not allow its rules to be "systematically and grotesquely violated".[3]
On December 27, 2017, the lifetime ban on Ryspayev was lifted.[4]
