Theres a guy in the KHL named Vyacheslav Gretsky and he wears #99

[McRpro]

Bizzaro Gretzky. Spelt with an S and instead of being awesome he sucks ass.

That is complete nonsense. As there were also Red and Black Russias. The White Russia being the land controlled by the Moscow Grand Duchy, i.e. the more easten part actually. It had nothing to do with paganism except for maybe the color scheme connection to geographical directions deriving from some older cosmogony views.

Dude, you know Russian right? So you should probably read this: Белая Русь — Википедия

Not quite as good as the Polish Gretzky, but then again who is.

or Dutch Gretzky

Vyacheslav Gretsky Hockey Stats and Profile at hockeydb.com

0.12 points per game, at speed for 9 points in 82 game season.

No bad for a forward.

Wayne Gretzky said Vyacheslav Gretsky is the best player not in the NHL right now.

I came here to make this joke.

Looks like the Habs have found their new star centre

Well, Wikipedia and history. Mostly like oil and water. They give you all the versions, never analyzing which one of those are absolutely apocryphic and nonsensical. But that's how Wikipedia is built. Everyone can put in his two cents. And then I always shudder when I think ho many kids nowadays use it a a reliable source.

If the three players in the photo above are linemates, are they the line with the highest sum of jersey numbers ever? (218)

Oilers had McDavid (#97), Puljujärvi (#98), and if I recall correctly, RNH (#93) for some shifts. Even with McDavid & Pulju it's already 195

Like many children in Belarus, I like to start my mornings with a bowl of Gretsky's Pro Stars borscht.

There are links there to research papers, but clowns don't know about it, cause they prefer to talk instead of do research these days.

 

[Muikea Bulju]

Dobber confirmed it, for example in 2018-19 Pulju's 4th most common 5v5 -line was

#97 Connor McDavid
#93 RNH
#98 Puljujarvi

I hereby claim this to be the highest sum of any forward line jersey numbers, ever.

288

(Highest possible in hockey is 294. Currently in the NHL, highest possible is 291, this is only 3 off.)

The "problem" being I don't need links. I've read quite a lot of those researches, I know who the researcghers were and why they wrote what they wrote.

I love how the KHL is so desperate for attention that they have a team campaigning to get a guy with 2 points into the all star game because he has a similar name to a guy that never played in the league.

He needs a cool goatee and the process is complete.

 

[Teflon Jim]

Wayne gretzkys family roots are in Russia.
The family came from there in early 1900s and I guess theres still lots of gretzkys there still.

Reminds me of the late 90s when WWF had Gilberg come out and lose every match to make fun of WCWs Goldberg.

It was started by the fans. It’s called having fun.

Meet the 'other' 99: Vyacheslav Gretsky is the KHL's newest cult hero
