[blinkjagr]

In Soviet Russia i suck at hockey.

[Trojan0087]

they all look like varlamov

[burago000]

In soviet russia mullet wears you...

[bamafan5684]

i swear all Russians use a freaking banana as a curve....

[yuriynyr]

@bamafan5684 What does that mean? Curves are just a preference. There isn't an advantage of one curve over another. A hockey player who uses a flat blade doesn't use it because it's a disadvantage and he wants a challenge. Again, it's all about personal preference. =)

[bamafan5684]

@yuriynyr haha yeah man i know curves are all about preference!:) but i used the term "banana" to describe that most russian players curves have huge toe curves and it just forms to look like a banana..its just a term that is used to describe it i guess.

[milleniumfalcon79]

@ethanrules3 funny joke, right?

[Fiilis1]

@ethanrules3 haha :DDD that was good one hahaha

[hockeyfreakboy99]

Members of KLM line were extremely intelligent players. They were not big or overly gifted athletes but they compensated it with brain. You see these guys scoring 16 goals in 3 games against Gretzky and Lemieux team while playing in Canada's barn (Canadians who unfortunately aren't really fond of an idea to play in someone elses barn).

[farcry2345]

Larionov, Makarov, Krutov....

[terdburgler99]

always remember , vodka will make u loose CONTROL!!!!!!

[zomgitskoolaid]

[milleniumfalcon79]

@MrNjdevilsfan30 try to do it with heavy woodies!

[Treneskikkelig]

Kovalchuk-Fedorov-Kovalev



[ChiHawks24]

Moginly-Federov-Bure line. Best ever.

[milleniumfalcon79]

@ChiHawks24 my dear, they played only once at junior wc

unfortunately we've never seen this line in action

[semiautoriflelover1]

@milleniumfalcon79 Mogilny was great when he played for Buffalo, I watched him play live the year he scored 76 goals.

[guard777]

@ChiHawks24 after KLM

[BeHappyEnjoyLife]

Krutov-Larionov-Makarov

[StaenkarN]

in soviet russia puck tricks with u

[MurphGiovanni]

haha..so old school

[84hotshot84]

OMG !beileh

[Clopodav]

Oh, I'm not worry for Canadians in Vancouver.

They can do the same old trick Americans did in 1980. Ask Russian embassy to swap OGM with some good contacts for corn. He or she will call Bikov in the middle of the final game and politely ask him to loose.

But Canadians have to present something really good. Who knows what will be oil prices in 2010? Russians may not agree to loose el chipo!

[GueorguiJoukov]

Russia actually present more skill and a greater play making than Canada.

Canada is not rosted yet, but they will surely have to skate fast not to be nut kicked in their home town.

[okpapereat]

i agree its gonna be hard for canada in 2010

[ebutuoy0814]

@okpapereat The gold medal was hard, but the game vs Russia was easy..very easy

7-3

[okpapereat]

@ebutuoy0814 sure enough but russians will always have great hockey players theres no doubt on that. It looks like russia do have some stars in the KHL such as Morozov, Radulov who was the only nashville predators at the time good when he was in the NHL. Im comfused though on why Tretyak didnt pick Zubov hes a great russian defenceman

[ebutuoy0814]

@GueorguiJoukov

7-3 That, is a nut kick!

[ebutuoy0814]

@GueorguiJoukov

7-3  That, is a nut kick!

[okpapereat]

i have to disagree with you! if you think thats what the Americans back then in 1980s was to call the Russian Embasy to call the game so they can loose it all. Back then it was not like that at all. The players in the old soviet teams they where basically part of the Russian army (red army) as they called them. So throwing a match was basically like loosing and surrending to war. But i guess there are rumers that they could of cause of the stupid decision to pull tretyak.

[ebutuoy0814]

@Clopodav

7-3

[SovietskiiSniper]

Kovalev keep alive the tradition with the puck trick.

Don't know of any other NHL player skillful enough to put what he can.

He used the puck flip on his neck in the All-Star Free shootout this year. :)

[MistaThrill]

Kovy is the best! hes not my fav but he is amazing!

[mizzike20]

Fetisov wasn't an offensive player on that line...Vladimir Krutov skated with Larionov and Makarov.

[gradenje40]

Larionov, Fetisov and Makarov...best attack line for me!!!

[okpapereat]

nope i think the KLM line is better Krutov Larionov and Makarov

[dimuha87]

What are you, stupid ?

[greater69]

@gradenje40 and forever ;)

[donhol17]

@gradenje40 fetisov was a defenseman.....he was not on that forward line....larionov was the pivot between vlad krutov and sergei makarov....fetisov played with alexei kasatonov on defense.....that maybe was the best five man unit in hockey history....

[danzax1]

@gradenje40 Sorry, but Fetisov was a defenseman.

[dstar189]

lol to aggiechilds

tru tru

[Glonito]

Larionov and Fetisov!!!! Go Wings!

[Aggiechilds]

Their greatest trick was escaping the USSR and become quality NHLers at advanced ages. (Kruton(v) excluded)

[Pave1schinko]

I have mullet like that ;D

You have mullet, you score 9 goals a game.

[Luda88888]

Why are you watching this clip anyway... You can't get over Russian team? Canada did not deserve to win.,

[Frostybeek]

But they did.

[Frostybeek]

Wow, great skills. Too bad your kids couldn't even pull a shootout goal out of their ass when they really needed it.

Poooooor Russia... sooooo much pain... oooooooh, so sad.

Let the whining begin.

[guard777]

he he he Canada - country of junior and women hockey )))

most of hockey world don't even watch these tourneys

What about of real players really strong players, what about three games in Tourine of best canadian players with NO GOALS???

[Frostybeek]
