Are Russians the best hockey players ?

[alex_DC]

Seems like most if the NHL stars are Russians, they play like beasts.

[Rich Boy]

Top 2 goal scorers since 2002-2003 season are Russian

can you guess who they are?

[alex_DC]

Lol I started following NHL year ago...one of them Datsyuk ?

[Rich Boy]

As good as Datsyuk is, he is not a sheer goal scorer.

1. Kovalchuck
2. Ovechkin

[alex_DC]

Both are great players, Russians killinf it, btw Im not Russian so you know, just like how they play.

In terms of pure skill Russians are the most talented but most of them lack in heart and physical play. Pound for pound Canada is still the top country in terms of sheer numbers.
