KHL's Dynamo Minsk tribute to fellow players and staff of Lokomotiv Yaroslavl lost on September 7th, 2011. At close to 35 minutes in length, it's one of the longer videos we've ever posted, but none have been so appropriate. No need to "front page" this since we've all been hit squarely in the face with bad news far too much in recent weeks.
Many thanks to Puck Daddy for the link.

If you think the Isles play to a low turnout, see CSKA Moscow of the Kontinental Hockey League..I wonder how they afford huge salaries for their players with no one in the seats!
Linus Omark's shootout goal against Switzerland that still has everyone talking. He was drafted in the 4th round by the Oilers in 2007 but remains unsigned. There are reports that he could sign in Russia for a million smacks.
More goals by Omark here.
Dubie on "Russia Today" (1:15 in) talking about his AK Bars Kazan club. Crazy to see him in his fisherman Isles mask with a Russian ad plastered over it.
I am particularly fond of the narrator's 1984-esque line, "As with most success stories involving sport in Russia, thanks must go to the authorities."
