For now, it’s a rumor, but Sergei Fedorov *could* lace up his skates for CSKA Moscow one last time
When former Red Wings forward Sergei Fedorov took the reins as the general manager of CSKA Moscow last summer, the plan was to get Fedorov into the uniform of his first professional hockey team for at least a game or two so that the 43-year-old could bid farewell to the game on the ice...

Red Wings locker room clean-out day post 1: Wings won’t replace Nill Datsyuk wants to extend stay
If there is any "good news" about the fact that the Detroit Red Wings took their team picture and cleaned out their lockers today, facing the media for the last formal "locker stall scrum" time this season and looking toward the future, it is this:
The Red Wings summer will be incredibly short for both a roster of largely banged-up players and the team's...
These Wings are something old and new
DETROIT -- During the Detroit Red Wings' glorious run of four Stanley Cups in the span of 12 years, some of the best and most competitive hockey I witnessed happened during practice.
The Wings were a deep and extremely talented bunch back then, boasting a center-ice corps of Steve Yzerman, Sergei Fedorov, Igor Larionov and Kris Draper. The team was a combination of scintillating...

Can the Red Wings hang on and make the playoffs?
It’s a fair question to ask.
Detroit is playing for their playoff lives and in danger of missing the postseason for the first time since the 89-90’ season. That’s before Lidstrom made his way to Detroit and back when Head Coach Mike Babcock was 2-years removed from his minor league hockey career that ended in 1988 with the Whitley Warriors.
In fact it’s been so long since...

10-year olds go crazy during Russian youth hockey game (VIDEO)
Pavel Datsyuk, Sergei Fedorov, Evgeni Malkin, Alex Ovechkin, Pavel Bure — some of the best Russian hockey players ever. Each of them are best known for their ability to stick handle like a magician and put the puck in the net. That’s the stereotype among Russian players that come over to the States. The good ones are uber-talented, but they’re soft.
Don’t tell these...
The Sergei Fedorov Story
from Nicholas J. Cotsonika of Yahoo,
He defected. Remember that. Remember that as Sergei Fedorov does a TV interview surrounded by CSKA Moscow memorabilia – red stars on the sofa, a red star on the banner looming behind him.

Red Wings European player news: CSKA holds Datsyuk presser; Jokerit Helsinki holds Filppula presser
I'm about to engage in a significant amount of paraphrasing due to foreign-language fun:
On Sunday afternoon, CSKA Moscow held a joint press conference to formally introduce Red Wings forward Pavel Datsyuk and Philadelphia Flyers goalie Ilya Bryzgalov as members of the team. CSKA's website posted a photo gallery from the event, a 13:27 YouTube clip (in Russian) of the...

Red Wings afternoon news: it’s a ‘fantasy’ projection sort of day
Well, it appears that the pre-pre-season preview news cycle's going to involve fantasy hockey projections. Following this morning's Predators vs. Red Wings take from the Tennessean's Josh Cooper (now being promoted on USA Today's hockey page), ESPN's Robert Vollman and Craig custance offered a "Summer Skate" take on the Red Wings' fantasy hockey...
The Fastest Game On Earth
from John Kreiser of NHL.com, Few things in any sport are as exciting as watching an elite skater blaze past an opponent, leaving him looking like he’s standing still. End-to-end rushes and breakaways are the types of plays that bring fans out of their seats.
The speed of an NHL game has never been faster, as teams put more and more emphasis on skating. But not every great player...
All Sergei Fedorov
from Szymon Szemberg of IIHF.com, IIHF.com met Fyodorov in the picturesque Swiss town of Sursee where he was accompanying CSKA Moscow to their training camp which included four games in five days against Swiss league clubs.
Sergei, you look in great shape. Could you still play?
I’d like to play. Could I? That’s the question. Fortunately I got an offer to become General...

The Reunited Russian Five
I know this is a day or two old, but it deserves a mention, because it is that damn cool. For the Winter Classic alumni game, Detroit has managed to convince 4 of the 5 members of the original (OG for the kids) Russian Five to play.
The Red Wings announced this afternoon that Sergei Fedorov, Slava Fetisov, Igor Larionov and Vladimir Konstantinov will take part in the festivities...
Red Wings overnight report: there ain’t no easy way ‘home’ for Sergei Fedorov
I didn’t need Jeff Riger or any of you to remind Red Wings fans that Sergei Fedorov remains an incredibly controversial player.

Please Don’t Boo Fedorov
Paul here for George who should start his regular blogging routine the early part of next week…
from Jeff Riger of CBS Detroit, I’m not one to tell fans what to do when they attend games. If they want to boo they should boo, if they want to heckle, they should heckle, if they want to do the wave, well I think you know where I’m going here. However when I heard the news that...
