Random Russia sh*t

[barbara_dewey]

If you are emotionally ready for it, here is another Russian junior to break your heart. Third generation national team member Aleksandra Andrianova is the granddaughter of Nikolai and Lubov. Her father Sergei was once a junior national team member himself. He is not her primary coach, since he is on the national team staff as Aliya Mustafina’s assistant. I believe she turns senior in 2027.

Sorry, i don’t know the credit for the video, a colleague sent it via TG

Moscow does not believe in tears.

I absolutely cannot fathom playing hockey into your 40s. That just sounds brutal.

Also…. Ew to all you Detroit fans (I’m in Chicago).

Gordie Howe played into his 50s, UURC, with no helmet, no mask, no mouth protector. And he looked good!

If he’s good enough for Edna he’s good enough for me.
