  • IF CZECHOSLOVAK COACHES DID NOT HAVE TO COME TO SOVIET UNION AFTER THE WWII in EARLY 1950es-- Russians would never played good hockey ..

    ==FACT..

  • @napajedlacek

    and CZECHOSLOVAK would have never lost like a bunch of pussies ?

  • @fofal -what I said ,is a fact .It will take Soviet Union long time to get on top without Czechoslovak help after we were invaded by bolshevism .....Russian hockey was the best for a long time...

  • only Czechoslovakia could beat them ....sometimes...

  • Best HockeyTeam Ever !!!!!! dont forget Charlamov

  • Comment removed

  • Krutov, Makarov, Larionov...those guys were really great.

  • Yes in the CzechSlovakia Republic in Komunist and Money One Bear 2 KČS That not Dollars its Money CzechSlovakia now Money Czech ... Coming Euro...... 2016

  • chlubíte se cizím peřím rusáci,kdyby k vám nepřijeli čeští trenéři tak by ste do ted pásli ovce

  • Makarov is my Uncle. He is a great man and a great hockey player still even though he is old. I some day wish to play for the CCCP the Russian Pro Teams and the NHL in America, He has inspired me to become the greatest hockey player i could ever be.

    Your Nephew, Vladislav Makarov.

  • Сергей Зиновьев сибирский САМОРОДОК хоккейного золота Высшей пробы! Воспитываю сына хоккеиста с таким ярким примером из Новокузнецка!

  • I'm of russina decent and strong "supporter" of the USSR, if you will. But the sad part was, other then sheer talent, if these didn't win, there families would get tortured, so they gave it 100% every game, no matter what =/

  • USSR was a great contry

  • @shuljup the USSR was not a country, its was a union of countries. USSR = Union of Soviet Socialist Republics

  • that is how you do it in the russian style

  • CCCP HOCKEY HEROES

  • This is unbeliavable.

  • BEST!!!

    

  • in soviet russia puck score you!

  • ILMAVEIVI!!!!!

    

  • Here in Sweden we call them "Superfemman" wich means "The Super Five". They are the greatest sportteam to ever walk the earth. They won against us 50 times in a row (and we were like top 2). Very sick. The russians should rly be proud of the CCCP. Even we Swedes are.

  • i really dont care what the US thinks,this is the greatest hockey in all times!

    Good luck in world champs 2011 russia!

    i hope the final will be my home country FINLAND vs Russia!!!!!

  • I know the history of WW2. I don't care about it when I see hockey played with this blinding skill. The best 1st line ever: Krutov - Larionov - Makarov backed up with Fetisov and Kasatonov. Fetisov alone: 7 world championship golds/1silver/2bronze, 2 olympic golds/1 silver, Canada Cup and two Stanley Cups. Triple-double gold club? One of 5 whom won everything included with Larionov who did the same?

    PS: Greetings from Finland (the little country USSR didn't invade)

  • Too bad we get int history & politics, ...what beautiful hockey, one could only dream of from N/Americans.

  • Well i think Canada isnt the best hockey country in the world. If you think,Sweden and Finland for example have won Canada and their population is 500 times smaller so i think its easy to say that Canada is the best cause they have all star players. But the best "TEAMS" are Sweden and Russia. The red machine was the best team ever though.

  • You mean cups of Canada? Well also what it means? That Canada is the best only if plays at home, at his small icefields, by the NHL rules, with support of his own judges and fans and when itself will choose. I.e. at unequal in relation to other national teams conditions. And in other cases USSR is the best.

  • @Ethereal1967 - Well we don't really have much history to prove otherwise do we? Last I remember, the Summit series of 1972 was played 4 games in Canada and 4 in Moscow...Canada won the remaining 3 games in Russia with biased referees. Where do Ovechkin, Malkin, Kovalchuk, etc play?...they play in the NHL which is in America. The World Cups have to occur somewhere.... do you think Russia has the resources to host such a tourney? Don't worry...Canada will won the gold in Sochi.

  • Comment removed

  • @Ethereal1967 - I don't know what Russian hockey fans will do after the Canadians win the gold in Sochi. What excuses will they have after this? They won't be able to blame the referees or the home fans. Mark it down on your calender.... 2014... I can see it now....thousands of Russian hockey fans will say "You know...I never really liked hockey very much anyways.... Let's watch soccer instead"

  • @squirrellylikesfish

    @I don't know what Russian hockey fans will do after the Canadians win the gold in Sochi. @

    No chances for Canada in the big rink. You'll be crushed.

  • I will admit that the 1980 CCCP team that won the Canada Cup in 1980 was the greatest team ever!! However, since 1976 there have been 11 hockey tournaments where every country has sent the best players they have. Canada has won 7, Sweden 1, Czech Rep 1, USA 1, and USSR/Russia 1 (1980). So you would be foul to not admit that Canada is the best hockey country in the world.

  • @wg390...Cont...If you really want to gauge hockey talent...the World Juniors is a yearly best on best tourney... Since 1990 Canada has won 12 Gold... and Russia has won 5!... and this is a tourney that is played in both Europe & America...Could we win so many championships without skills?...Russian fans discount this tourney by saying they are just kids... Unfortunately, because of the NHL, it is not often that our best pros can play... however, when they do they usually win.

  • @squirrellylikesfish Red Machine was the best team of all time and you have to be a foul to don't admit it 

  • @wg390 - I always laugh when I hear Russian hockey talk about how Canada has no skills in hockey.... OK well...So we beat Team Russia last year in the Olympics 7 to 3 with no skills!!. At least Canadian fans like myself can acknowledge that Russia has lots of skills, but cannot play physical....but Russian fans always have some excuse for losing to Canada whenever it's a best on best challenge...the refs, cheating, blah blah blah. I've watched Canada and Russia play for almost 40 years ..Cont.

  • The only team who has a nick name is Russia, we all called it - RED MACHINE

    It means simple thing - etalon of hockey

  • If I didn't not anything about the "Cold War", all the lies told both ways, ..I love the National Anthem of the USSR, Russia or what ever you may want to call it. It sounds like it meant something, I love it not knowing what it means. The Canadian British or American Anthems, mean nothing to me for they are just words of "BULLSHIT" !!

    But mostly I loved from the first time I saw them, the Russian players skating with a flow that I'd never seen before. We have closed the gap, but they R still #1!

  • sosi xyй)

  • The best hockey team ever. It's a pleasure to watch them have fun with the other teams.

  • @06Steven58 Yeah the best hockey team ever that went on to lose to Team Canada in the 84, 87 & 91 Canada Cups...plus the 72 series, 76 series... oh I almost forgot about the 2 gold medals out of 4 that Canada won since the olympics allowed pro players. The big red machine were really awesome when they played against amateurs (kids)...oh wait I forgot they lost to a bunch of kids in 1980 when the USA won the olympics.

  • The real funny thing is that in most of these hi-lights of russia scoring on Canada.... Canada won the eventual game/series. History is proof.... best on best... Canada has defeated team russia or soviet union more times than not...so it's not really an argument... Canada is the best....period.... Russians have good skills, but do not know how to play tough physical style, which ultimately is why Canada usually wins.

  • @squirrellylikesfish

    Your comment perfectly admited that Canada never played real hockey but wresting and boxing on the ice, because Canada has no skills to play hockey

  • greetings from Portland Oregon :-)

  • Najlučšija chokkejovaja komanda vsjeho vsjech vremeni,nu sejčas russkaja chokkejovaja komanda jesť vsegda najlučšija chokkejovaja komanda.

    ;)

  • They were extremely good, but need to remember they used to play over 750 games together, and lived in a sport camp life most of the year. Only few times a year with a family. Basically not other life but hockey.

  • Comment removed

  • @ZivjuLV you say that like its a bad thing......what else matters but hockey??? I would love to go to their training camps!!!!!

  • these guys were he best hockey players that has ever played,that´s it!

    And russia i still the best hockey country,sorry canada and finland;D

  • Ali needed Frazier to become a legend. Larry Bird and Magic Johnson needed each other to become legends. The competition between the Canadians and the Soviets (and Herb Brooks' 1980 team) all helped the game reach a level of nobility unequaled in team sports. I respect all those competitive warriors

  • The greatest hockey players respect their toughest opponent when they get older and understand the nature of competition. The high level of Canadian hockey drove the Soviets and their desire to compete & become a hockey power. When the Soviets reached such a high level over a relativeley short period with their own style, the NHL/WHA new motivation to forget about the "business" of hockey and re-focus on the GAME of hockey. Greatness is constantly redefined by your most competitive opponent.

  • What a beautiful Video! They did this, with the threat of some "Clown", (posing as a hockey player), trying to decapitate them. Imagine how it would have been, if the rules had been enforced.

  • CCCP - hockey legends! Greatest sportsmen and best technicians ever! The original dreamteam! Deeply respected by all hockey-nations!  Greetings from Sweden.

  • CCCP HAM HA XPEH HE HYZH

  • This team is something I never will forget !

    ...should be intresting and fun to see them agains a elite hockey team today, of course the skill has aproved after those years, but the team feeling as they had where something over the natural!

  • ma fa schifo!

  • this is what happends when you eat steroids... they were not men any more and i think that is fucking pussy, but now a days the russian team is great

  • @MrBaumis

    Get some IQ before posting here mate;)

  • @cidzoo put a dildo in your ass before posting here mate;)

  • @MrBaumis where do you get that from? You seem living in the fantasyworld...

  • @MrBaumis I think N/Americans are more apt to be on steroids, now & back in the 70's also.

    The Russians were unbelievable to watch! I prefer to see them, as a team, than guys on a "Bastard" team, in a Bastard, league. If you saw "Net Worth", you know it (NHL), was run by "Organised Crime" back then. Now. the only difference is, it's a hell of a lot bigger bigger!

    I HATE seeing OV taking runs @ other Russians, it makes him look like some N/A Goon. Perhaps he is just trying to fit in??

  • i love old CCCP hockey (KLM attack and so) and i hate modern "big red machine" like ovie kovy and so. only good is datsyuk

  • ive always loved soviet hockey and im from canada

  • @nietzsche71 Hey, me too!!! But, I got called "Commie" from a lot of people for it.

    I had to go to one of the few things i remembered from my Sunday School Days. I would say "forgive them Lord, for they know not what they say". And to my self & sometimes out loud, I would add, "it's just what 'Hollywood' has taught them".

  • The CCCP hockey was the best the russians have ever seen there soviet hockey league was so close to being as good as the nhl such as sergei makarov vladislav tretiak and slava fetisov

  • until i saw the USSR play hockey in 1972 i thought we were the best in the world ! just gos to show how easy we can ALL be fooled !

  • @gohawks43 GO FUCK YOURSELF U FN DORK!! U WOULD NOT KNOW GOOD HOCKEY IF U SAW IT!!!

    THE COMMIE BASTARDS, AS YOU CALL THEM, SAVED YOU FN BACON IN WW2!! BUT YOUR AS BRAINDEAD ON THAT AS U R IN HOCKEY!! WW2 WAS KIND A SHORT 4 U (US)! CAME IN WHEN IT WAS ALL OVER, JUST LIKE WW1.

  • @hanksnow2 Never mix up sports and war, that's just sick!! Those hockeyplayers had nothing to do with the war. Just because they represented the Soviet Union doesn't mean that they represent thier politic situation!! NEVER MIX SPORTS WITH WAR AND POLITICS!!!!!

  • @prosenator Your a little late for that pro. If I had a dollar for every time team Canada referred to 72 as a "War" I'd have a pile of $.

    You may not know it, but millions of N/Americans,(including NA players with WMD's) believe the Russian hockey players represent something evil, & would be better dead. When the officials see nothing wrong with that thinking, Russian players have a problem.

    I Never miss an opportunity, to correct a historic wrongs & the Russians have been wronged to HELL!

  • @hanksnow2 You talked about WW2, that was a war right?! I'm from Norway, I have nothing negative to say about the old Soviet hockeyplayers OR the russian players today. You just missunderstod seems like ;)

  • @hanksnow2 I agree...Russia won the 2nd WW, Great Britain won the 1st

  • @SoLazy100 Russia only won with the help of americas GIs. 

  • @IQ20000Berta LOL you can't be serious...the USA first set foot on europe in 1942...russia was turning the war around much earlier...like in the first world war when America came into the fight when it was almost over

  • @SoLazy100- Right on!! But you can't expect N/Americans to know that, because "Hollywood", was not making very many movies about truth.

    They were (& still are), into manufacturing "Bullshit", for an ever willing audience.

    It was the US who drove Hitler into the USSR, who's system was directly opposed to the type of Gov. the West enjoyed. The system that enslaved the people, but told them they were free! It was the USSR who were free! Free from all the 100's of Maddoff's in the US & Canada etc.

  • @hanksnow2 right on hank 

  • @SoLazy100 Look in statistics 23,954,000 killed sowjets

    6,777,000 total deaths on germans side.Without the west front and the US nuclear bombs, russia would be very small.

  • @IQ20000Berta guess I have to explain you this statistic :) Stalin mobilized more and more soldiers...he had more men then weapons...almost every russian man or woman was defending their country...of course the germans knew that alot of people live in the soviet area, but they didn't expect that much fighting in this war, but a lot of russians had to die to make the victory possible. But without any help, it wouldn't had worked, because no nation could have beaten the germans one on one.

  • @SoLazy100 PEACE

  • @IQ20000Berta

    Keep dreaming

    After USSR collapsed Russia still has 11 time zones LOL

    It is HUGE country

    Go away and fuck yourself

  • @IQ20000Berta - you must have got that info from the hundreds of on Hollywood movies that were made about WW2.

    I hate to say it but, Hollywood has produced a lot of bullshit that was spewed out all over the world.

    I would suggest you find a doc. called "the thousand day war", that will educate you somewhat.

    25,000,000 + lives were lost when Germany invaded & most of them lost at home They don't know the meaning of "Going Overseas" They died in their front & back yards, waiting for help from US

  • @hanksnow2 man you have done your homework hank !

  • @tonybenn1000 -Thanks Tony. Some semi-informed person wrote that the USSR had declared war on Japan "After" they (US) dropped the bomb(twice). Well I got to thinking. Near the end of the war, the USSR had lost over 25,000,000 fighting Germany, the common enemy, with little help from anyone.research revealed the West bullied them into declaring war on Japan on July 26 & not after the bomb was dropped.

    Mis-informed people are much more dangerous than the uninformed. BTW BEST NATIONAL ANTHEM EVER!

  • @IQ20000Berta

    Your IQ kinda between 30-46 

  • @hanksnow2 Actually the Russians didn't save anyone in WW2 except themselves. The president should have let Patton complete the game so well begun and let him take Moscow. The Russians have NEVER been allies and they think for themselves. Hockey is one thing, history is another. Get your facts straight. The only bacon they saved in WW2 is theirs. And Russia has a long history of getting their asses kicked by hte Japs. Very brave of them to declare war on apan after the USA made them surrender

  • @Quillons1 "Taking into consideration the refusal of Japan to capitulate, the Allies submitted to the Soviet Government a proposal to join the war against Japanese aggression and thus shorten the duration of the war, reduce the number of victims and facilitate the speedy restoration of universal peace.

    "Loyal to its "Allied" duty, the Soviet Government has accepted the proposals of the Allies and has joined in the declaration of the Allied powers of July 26.

    How many US casualties @ this time?

  • @Quillons1 ARE YOU EVER ONE BRAIN DEAD YANKIE !

  • @hanksnow2 Oh, and yes we came in later, but we were there for 4 years. And it was our entrance that saved Europe. Like it or not. You'd be speaking German in London, Moscow, Paris, and a lot more for the US not entering. It was the RUSSIANS and that piece of shit Stalin that struck secret deals with Germany and Japan and STOPPED fighting. Only to resume when the USA softened up the opposition. The soviets were COWARDS in WW2. Stalin was WORSE than Hitler. Congratulations on your hockey though..

  • @hanksnow2 funny we fought months after russia was invaded sure u had it harder against germans but we had to double front anyways this is a video of the worlds greatest hockey team can we avoid the US vs. Russia both are very powerful and history rich countries. Its sure however russians know how to skate.

  • @hanksnow2

    YOU DON'T KNOW HOCKEY! WE ALL WORK TOGETHER AS A TEAM ON THE ICE!

    Да здравствует Россия!!!!

  • @SanFaction - I don't know what you are talking about??? I am a fan of European Hockey. I don't like the N/American style, although we are learning some of the finer skills, that we never had back in the 50's, 60's, 70's or 80's. We are getting better. But still cant compete with out the "Banging & Crashing", that the Officials seem to over look when it's done by us (NA).

    Like I said, I am a European fan & especially Russian Hockey, you must have misunderstood, or meant to reply fo someone else.

  • @hanksnow2

    I misunderstood you, sorry. I thought you didnt like this kind of hockey.

    Accept my apoligies

  • @hanksnow2

    I understand that Russia played a huge part in World War ,=2, but you can't really say that WWII was "all over" in December 1941.

  • commie bastards

  • 2:14 mega goal

  • ukraine go

  • Im American and Canadian yet these guys could kick our ass in everything even fuckin basketball!!! haha

  • Did you want to say that AB equilance USSR and Ukrain equilance Sweden??? I haven't understood what's the parralell between old and new USSR....

  • Why the hell does it say that the song is Cher- If I could turn back time, somehow i doubt that's the name and writer of the russian national song.

  • CCCP's team were 4 players > Krutov,Larionov,Makarov and Goal :)

    Legends.

  • CCCP

  • Hmmm. we will never see this kind of hockey again, there is no canadian or American or European tem that will ever match this, thats for sure:-) The most irritating and the mooat missed team larionov, Krutov, fetisov, kassatonov and makarow. The magical 5. those five could beat any team alone , the cccp with 4 players on ice were more dangerous than a line wit Lemioux, Gretzky and all the biggest stars from canada, Sweden or anyone else:-) every time they where on ice it was goal:-)

  • Russia is the Best hockey country on the world !!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Really stupid discussion! I guess YouTube is good place to understand one another. But your dialog is looking like the fight of two mass media zombie. It’s interest of politicians to sow enmity between the nations. It’s their job. JaneIsMine, I was born in USSR and I don’t like the country “Russia”, really. But you take too much “Russia is a piece of shit”. Do you know why? You have no facts. Emotions without the facts are bla-bla-bla. Тоже и к JaneIsMine. Be speaking about hockey!
  • @before2after

    And i was born in USSR and i love this state.

    But what about you?

  • 00:54

  • canada, czech , sweden are good but will ever be second

    at 1:28 amazing goal

    Slava Russia !

  • GF boys... Czech Republic repeated NAGANO and we are world champions 2010 gf guys !

  • At present there are 550,000 registered hockey players in Canada, 500, 000 in the U.S. Mother Russia . . . about 130, 000. Russia is no longer a dominant hockey power and this has been clearly illustrated in the Olympics and World Junior Championships. If Russia does not turn things around (like Canada had to do in the 80's and 90's) all they will have is rhetoric and not glory when the time for Sochi arrives.

  • russia still going string since the year of 2005, they have been in top ranking.

    4 medals in 5 IIHF proves they are back ( 2 bronze, 2 golds)..still Canadians, swedes, finns etc are good team as well, im swedish, but still hope that russians at öeast got bronze in every iihf ( most of the time the are woth it so =) )

  • @00william33

    sorry bad spelling =), string - "strong"

  • The best hockey I've ever saw. When I see this video i get tears!

    Thanks to CCCP and Tichonov and all the players!!!

  • Im embarrassed at our current team, a bunch of overpaid NHL players who choked. Long live CCCP hockey!

  • Truly dominant, their olympic record: 62-6-2, with 467 goals for and 127 goals given up, averaging 6.67 goals per game and only 1.81 goals against. They also share the record for win percentage in a olympic tourny with the US, standing at 7-0

  • soviets suck. sadly, nowadays most russian peaple are still living in spirit of the past

  • ВЕЛИКОЛЕПНО!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    УРА!!!!!!! УДАЧИ В ГЕРМАНИИ СБОРНОЙ РОССИИ!!!

  • Dear butthetruth

    But the NHL clubs was bitten not by Red Army (CSKA) only!

    They was bitten by Dinamo, by Krylya Sovetov, by Spartak, by Himik etc.

    They was bitten always in every series.

    So maybe its the right way to work a lot?

    To be the best.

  • @before2after Yes but most often the NHL clubs defeated the the visiting Soviet clubs. Even weaker NHL clubs were victorious.

  • @2tuque2

    what? the historical record of the USSR vs NHL teams is: 58-40-10. Know what you're talking about before you actually talk about it

  • This were the greatest hockey team in the world

  • Canada the greatest! Olympic GOLD!

  • CCCP trained year round.

    Red Army took all players.

    Tikhonov = Grozny, Stalin, etc...

  • I wish, we could have only 1% of the talent, enthusiasm and passion the Russians and Canadians have to this game, i´m german. It was a great final yesterday, with great players, but hockey has changed. No doubt, there will never be a better lineup than Fetisov, Kassatonov, Makarov, Larionov and Krutov, never ever. But that´s yesterday, today´s hockey was payed between the US and Canada in Vancouver, and this is the best right now, Canada and Russia own this game, be proud of it

  • @fulltiltfrank

    Russia owns nothing right now, they got bombed. The Soviets ruled, but that is a different era and a completely different system. Russia is owned by the mob, it's a disgrace.

  • @fulltiltfrank

    Russia owns nothing right now, they got bombed. The Soviets ruled, but that is a different era and a completely different system. Russia is owned by the mob, it's a disgrace.

  • Long live CCCP

    Fuck Canada and USA

  • @sarzamineiran

    Yes!!

  • @sarzamineiran

    NICE ...Its true stupid North America

  • @sarzamineiran Long live the CCCP, fuck USA and I am a patriotic Russian. But I have lived in Canada for 2 years, its a great country!!!

  • @sarzamineiran what the fuck? how random is that. I love russia and everything, but why?

  • The best team ever...NHL is second league for them...

  • yea man the best team....definitely not Team Canada who pounded them every chance they got.

  • For the first time in 50 years.... now you talk shit. Funny.

  • @Curbrigen1

    NHL is amateur league, soviets were best, now hope that KHL gonna take own place.

  • @Curbrigen1 I agree. The NHL is a cesspool for dump-and-chase hockey. Oh how I miss the CCCP national team--it played hockey the way it SHOULD be played...and I'm Canadian but not afraid to wear my Tretiak jerseys with pride!!!!

  • @MadcapLaugh3 they all took fucking steroids hows that the way hockey should be played? Every sport the soviets competed in when the CCCP was still in power, was on a performance enhancer, how dare you even compare them to the heart and soul that Canadians and Americans played with!! And half of the guys on the CCCP national team would have played in the NHL but being a communist and still part of the cold war they could not leave Russia and move to Canada or the U.S! have some knowledge

  • @djgrizzy94 GET OVER YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why don't you channel such passion into something that actually matters in the long run? But all the same, thanks for your response, it gave me and some others a great laugh! have a great life you capitalist pig!!!!!!! hahaha

  • @djgrizzy94 They all took steroids? LMAO!! Fact is that none of them tested positive for steroids and when the Soviet Union fell and the archives opened no official documents about steroid use in Soviet hockey were found.

  • @djgrizzy94 You must have come to your conclusions through the 007, Rockey, Red Dawn, Hunt for Red October type movies, (& there were hundreds of em), during the "Cold War". Not being a movie goer, partly because of the fact they are "Brain Washing", & filled with a HATE messages. Week minded people easily fall 4 such "Bull Shit" & tend to believe in such shit as U print.

    The USSR was hated by most of the week minded people of the world & would have been check 4 ways from Sunday on Steroid use

  • @djgrizzy94 you're a moron, they did not use steroids at all and Canada played very dirty in '72

  • Best Hockey 4 ever!!! Great CCCP!

    F*** for bastards from USA and CAN!

  • RED MACHINE ,BEST FOR EVER !!!

  • Comment removed

  • Sick skills, but they were pussies.

    Once thugs like Krutov were taken out of the game, they had no one to protect their players.

  • Just the best team I ever saw. Playing rough to me was so primitve compared to Sovjet technique, teamplay, cunning, agility, speed. Always when I saw NHL hockey or Canada/USA on the Olympics I found it secondclass compared to the USSR. In Holland we played hockey when there was ice (in winter), but we are an icespeedskating country. I always loved Brazils footballskills and in Olympics, we had USSR as an equivalent in icehockey. Makarov, Tretjak, Larionov etc stellar players in an awesome team.

  • CCCP hockey was sick.. hard to believe how great they were.

  • @PhilZero9 Thats because 1/4 of the players were Latvian... ;

    Great hockey though

  • There was only Balderis and Irbe. Hardly a quarter.

  • @lamacis 1/4!!!??? you are a liar

  • тот-же Морозов в играх за сборную куда полезней многих игроков из НХЛ... и не всегда Малкин и прочие играют до него дотягивают...

  • Ак Барс - чемпион!)

  • Продолжатели советского хоккея это Ковальчук, Малкин, и Овечкин....но никак не Прошкин....

    Хорошие игроки играют в НХЛ, к сожалению...

  • ага, еще напиши, что Лисин и Анисимов лучше чем Морозов и Мозякин)), в НХЛ то-же деревянных игроков хватает..., тот-же Семенов в прошлом году в Сан-Хосе играл... и т.д. , а в КХЛ хватает мастеров высокого уровня...

  • this is crazy stuff, when i was little fesitov's doughter was my sisters best friend, i didnt realize who he was. i remember i went into his house and he had solid gold goalie equipment and sticks

  • Damn Copyrights!

  • What about the win by Russia in Canada?

    What about the win this year=D

    idiots xD

  • stfu u idiot russia is best country in the world by ice hockey haha and we have 25gold medals and canada 24aha:DDDDDDDDD

  • Think that through before you post on youtube please, Canadas best pros all played in the nhl while Russias back in the day stayed in the Russian league (the pros in this video actually). Nhl players wernt allowed in the Olympics tell 1998 in nageno and since then we won medals in 2003, 2004, 2007. Russia is a great hockey country as well, but its not fair to compare the two as these guys are clearly nhl caliber when canada just had amateurs

  • last words russia and canada are best in hockey

  • yeah so true, fuck the united states

  • i like to see russians like malkin or ovechkin or even mogiliny who actually care about hockey, not a bunch of overpaid assholes like Yashin come over, the khl can have that douche. I dont think it matters where you come from as long as you have passion about the game your country can be good and i cant speak for russia but in canada everyone is born with a hockey stick in our hands

  • yea i know that the canada is the country of hockey and children sleeped with stick and thats why canadians have more players in draft and a lot of tallented players,but hockey in russia is very popular too.. and what is bad with yashin hes good

  • he only ever played for the money, he could have been great if he truly had passion for the game, instead he even missed a season due to contract disputes. He would have probably rebounded his bad 2 seasons in new york but his 87+ million dollar contract was the reason he never got a second chance.

  • ovechkin plays in the NHL ahahahahaha and not in the poor KHL hahahahaha
