"favorite" thing there for me is the penalties in Game 1...12 minors for Severstal, plus 2 more minors in OT, against 0 for SKA...never have a seen such a lopsided penalty count. and they STILL needed OT to win it xD
Pretty much everything Malamud said is indisputable fact though, so regardless of whether or not he's biased against Russia his point is still valid.
ah my mistake, I read of it earlier on my own country's sport site where they reported it as saying Malamud said SKA got 12 power plays, they must have lost something in translationBut there wasn't 12 minors. Stasenko got 2+10, so there were only 7 minors.
Pretty sure he has had people poisoned.
You won't get me though Vlad. There's no way you could even

Btw, SKA's goal against Severstal in OT of game number 3 was illegal. However, Severstal is to blame, because they have a 19th century arena with one camera and referies(who were nor russian btw, from Slovakia I believe) just had no proper angle to see the offside

Somebody filmed it from the standsWhere did the camera angle that clearly showed it was offside come from?
Salisbury, UK.You can have your opinion, but it's important to use critical thinking. Poisoning usually is related to either Litvinenko or Shekochikhin cases. The latter wasn't even a Putin's critic. And Litvinenko's case is rather muddy. At the moment of his death he wasn't dangerous for Putin at all. He also was an associate of mr Berezovsky, who was a criminal himself. To just blame Putin is blatant simplifying.
that's a good one. lolThat’s one brave dude. I applaud his honesty and criticism but Putin is a deplorable person who isn’t afraid to assinate anyone who criticizes him.
that's a good one. lol
He’s correct though. Russia is horribly corrupt, the KHL is fixed, Putin will come to your door and kill you, so will the mafia, everybody is drunk and bears walk the streets with ushankas on their heads.
I don't think Russian people are bad, but I do think their country is lead by a demagogue and their hockey league is fixed.All jokes aside, Russians have never stopped being portrayed as the bad guys in our culture. It’s painfully evident on these boards whenever there’s talk of the KHL. This Malmud character appears to do a great job of exploiting these sentiments.
Here’s an insightful article on Hollywood’s fixation of this:
Will the cliche of the ‘Russian baddie’ ever leave our screens?

I still dont understand why they were allowed in the tournament in regard of the doping programm of russia. Just ban them incl. The hockey team completely, maybe this would be a lessonFurther nailing home how ridiculously meaningless the Olympic men's hockey tournament was.
