my thoughts on every player on the 1980 soviet roster (october 2021)
Yep. 
Under the cut is me going feral and only @hockeychaos knowing what the fuck i’m talking about KSDFGSHDFGSDB this also includes the nicknames we call some of them. 
1. Vladimir Myshkin - Thot Energy. this man is a smol THOT and we have the PHOTO EVIDENCE but he is also such an adorable smol goalie (would defo ruffle his hair uwu) and HE DESERVES SO MUCH BETTER THAN TO BE KNOWN AS ‘TRETIAK’S BACKUP’, VLADIMIR IS HIS OWN PERSON FFS. probably my fav goalie, he’s a bean!!!! also he and Vasily (below) are Big OTP. 
2. Viacheslav Fetisov (Slava) - So Iconic, he deserves the whole entire world. but I will forever be salty that he now supports THAT OLD COOT WHO P MUCH RULES RUSSIA NOW. YOU’RE BETTER THAN THAT, SLAVA, YOU KNOW IT. anyways, stan the (future as of 1980) papa bear, Brendan Shanahan Was Right. 
5. Vasily Pervukhin - this mans is a grump in 90% of pictures he’s in but?? he also has such friend shaped energy??? so that’s his personality to me. he hates cameras but otherwise he is such a lovely friend. 555/5 would hug him. he and Vladimir 1) are BIG OTP, 2) are absolute BOYFRIENDS and later HUSBANDS in my ‘verse, 3) deserve so much better than to be remembered just for the Miracle. 
6. Valeri Vasiliev (Lerik) - MY FAVORITE. ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS and THICC, ABSOLUTELY LOVELY. I LOVE HIM SO MUCH. yea, in the past year I went to not really knowing about him to simping for him 25/8. and yearning for him, I admit this. he is such a soft mans (and a Big Thot, have yall SEEN his bodychecking???). Lerik and Yuri (below) are Such An OTP but add my self insert and it’s even better as a triad, and have together stolen my uwus. STREAM BECAUSE BY DREAMCATCHER SINCE??? VIBES FOR LERIK MY BELOVED I WILL FOREVER BE SAD ABOUT HIM /pos 
7. Alexei Kasatonov - HIMBO ALERT HIMBO ALERT HIMBO ALERT. he looks like the kind of guy who MEDDLES and will give you SHIT the moment you have a crush, but in a good way. and also a THOT which Mandy and I can vvvv attest to. tldr: his energy is annoying, but good annoying. 
9. Vladimir Krutov (Vova) - cinnamon unit!!!!!! he may have been A Menace on the ice but I’ve read that off the ice???? he was???? such a sweet dude??? and just looking at him he has Wholesome Little Brøther Energy. Vladislav wanted to protecc this cinnamon roll with all his heart and tbh? he’s RIGHT 
10. Alexander Maltsev (Sasha) - Everyone’s Uncle!!!!! Has 1000% Soft Uncle Vibes, Enough Said. I feel kind of bad that in my fics he’s stuck being Dynamo’s lone franchise player from ‘78 onwards but he’ll be alright, he has a baby winger to train. he is So Proud Of Her. also he and his wife looked adorable together. 
11. Yuri Lebedev - BELOVED LITTLE SNOWDROP. I cannot escape this man and tbh, I’m glad he kept catching up with me in my subconscious/vibe checks since he is So Adorable and So Soft and has Such Kind And Gentle Vibes. I would vvv like many cuddles and kisses and soft words from him. he and Lerik (above) are probs my Favorite Hockey Ship excluding my OCs but it’s even better as a triad when I add in my self insert. 
12. Sergei Starikov (Seriy) - lowkey shy energy, highkey soft energy. he seems like he’d be a bit shy at first but would also give such good hugs. in my fics he’s in the (sorta unspoken) Book Club Trio who are all p much BFFs and just have each other’s backs no matter what and it’s So Soft. also, I read somewhere that he loved dumplings so SERIY IS MY SWEET LITTLE DUMPLING. 
13. Boris Mikhailov - TIRED DAD!!!!!!!! BUT GOOD DAD!!!!!!! I SWEAR this man has a resting tired dad face (which Miracle (2004) GOT WRONG, HE DOES NOT HAVE A MF RESTING SMUG FACE) and yeah he has to deal with everyone’s shenanigans and Accept A Lot Of Things so he deserves to have a nap and some cuddles already. but we stan a great captain. stop making him talk about the Miracle. 
14. Zinetula Bilyaletdinov - seems really cool! if memory serves me correctly I remember reading he was kind of a secretive person so who knows what cool tales he could tell us about? there’s gotta be something to be BFFs with Big Z over. 
16. Vladimir Petrov (Vladik) - OG CHAOS MANSSSSSS!!!!!! at least in my ‘verse, he is So Chaotic and is always Up To Something. or yearning. OR BOTH, WHY NOT, BOTH IS GOOD. at the same time he seems so soft nnnnn and in a lot of pictures his expression is So Gentle and So Tender so yes he may be plotting the next chaos run but he is also yearning for his equally chaotic husbands (again, in my ‘verse) who he is So Soft For and misses So Much during the Miracle ordeal, THEY DESERVE EACH OTHER PERIODT. 
17. Valeri Kharlamov (Valia) - TEAM COUNSELOR. HE IS VERY SOFT I DON’T CARE WHAT THOSE ‘EPIC’ TRIBUTE VIDEOS TRY TO PAINT HIM AS. somehow I??? got the vibes right for him??? since I guessed he was so gentle and so kind and loved to be outside in nature and I was right????? there are so many pictures of him out there which is Such A Blessing and I am very sad about him /pos, HE LIVES IN MY ‘VERSE SINCE HE DESERVES IT. AND SO MUCH. side note, Valia could make friends with anyone which I LOVE but in my ‘verse he has an extra soft spot for the book club uwu 
19. Helmuts Balderis - Mustache Man 1, I don’t know/write much about him but from what I read about him and how he Up And Refused to go into the military he seems iconic. also, sorry Helmuts but, aforementioned baby winger (yes, an OC) is going to be faster than you òwó 
20. Vladislav Tretiak - SOFT GOALIE AND BEST GOALIE OUR BELOVED!!!!! I don’t care what the Miracle does to his reputation, he was SUCH AN ICONIC GOALIE and it was so so so so sad how he retired so early since TIKHONOV WAS A DICK TO LIKE EVERYONE. anyways. Vladislav was also such a good friend to like anyone and I LOVE THAT FOR HIM, he has The Best Energy. 
22. Viktor Zhluktov - Mustache Man 2, has stache game but I don’t know/write much about him. 
23. Alexander Golikov (Sanya) - wholesome big brother NO CAP!!!!! his brows may be Menacing /lh but do not let that fool you, other than that he has such good brøther energy and, he and Volodya (below) seem like they’d be close and IT’S SO ADORABLE THAT THEIR NUMBERS WERE MOSTLY CLOSE TO EACH OTHER. BUT I AM VERY SAD THAT IRL THEY DIDN’T FIGHT TO PLAY TOGETHER. also Sanya was captain of Dynamo for a season and that’s???? so iconic???? and in my ‘verse he will also protecc Seriy (and Valia) in the Book Club Trio uwu 
24. Sergey Makarov - ULTIMATE SOFT GRUMP!!!! has outwardly grumpy energy, and was apparently So Stubborn which VIBES, but is also Very Soft especially for his kid(s) which is apparent in a bunch of photos. someone give this man and said kids a hug. they probably need it. (I spelled his first name differently on purpose, it’s to differentiate from another Sergei, a certain Red Wings gremlin.) 
25. Vladimir Golikov (Volodya) - Cryptid Bean. he looks like a mf CRYPTID in the very few non-team-picture photos of him and I’m guessing he does Not Like Cameras or the media in general which is VALID. also has shy energy but also soft energy when he trusts you. I love the thought of him and Sanya being close to each other, especially of Sanya being protective of Volodya, and Volodya CANONICALLY FOLLOWED SANYA TO WHICHEVER TEAM HE PLAYED FOR WHICH IS SO SOFT?????? 
26. Alexander Skvortsov - he seems p nice, and sometimes looked a lot like Slava, but I don’t know/write much about him. 
= BONUS - PLAYERS CUT IN FEBRUARY 1980 = 
3. Vladimir Lutchenko - two words: CHAOS THOT. this man has a resting thot face and y’all can’t convince me otherwise. what is he thinking about (in my ‘verse)? probably plotting the next chaos plan, or Getting Ready To Thot Around. who is he looking at? OF COURSE at Vladik (above) and also at Alexander Gusev aka Goose since, in my ‘verse, they’re all married and would do a n y t h i n g for each other. 
4. Sergei Babinov - I don’t know/write much about him either (insert shrug face) 
OVERALL THOUGHTS - This roster first got me into Soviet hockey for real, and I do have to give credit to the Miracle for introducing me to it and inaverdently luring me down the rabbit hole. They were Such A Lovely Roster and deserved So Much More than what they got, some of these men missed their chance at their own Olympic gold because of it and?? that’s v sad in general??? To this day this roster is still my favorite of all time, since most of my fav players were on it. The above comments/vibe checks of them have come from almost a year of developing my Soviet hockey fic ‘verse which involves a LOT of OCs and has a bunch of AUs!
Speaking of which, Mandy, said ‘verse has become a huge collab with you and IT’S BEEN SO INCREDIBLY LOVELY TO COLLAB WITH YOU EVERY STEP OF THE WAY!!!!! It’s around a week until the first anniversary of our friendship, as far as I remember, and here’s to the iconicness that has come out of it!! CHEERS BESTIE BIG UWU

“The time you won your town the race We chaired you through the market-place; Man and boy stood cheering by, And home we brought you shoulder-high.
Today, the road all runners come, Shoulder-high we bring you home, And set you at your threshold down, Townsman of a stiller town.”  - A.E. Houseman, To An Athlete Dying Young
I know I’m late to this, but I found this poem and it seemed necessary to post a chunk of it with Bobby’s picture up here. Happy belated birthday, wild man. You were a real hero, and you always will be. Rest in peace.

Hey there, fellow Miracle on Ice fans!
Lately @kenmorrow and I have been chatting about how sad we are about the lack of Miracle things happening in Tumblr land. So we decided to take things into our own hands and make things happen -- we’re going to have an appreciation week for every member of the 1980 Olympic hockey team! Every week will be a different player, and every day will have a different prompt.
Monday: favorite photo(s)
Tuesday: favorite storie(s)
Wednesday: favorite thing(s) about the player (aka why you love him!)
Thursday: favorite quote(s) by/about the player
Friday: favorite game highlights (from the Olympics or otherwise!)
We’ll be tagging everything as #moiappreciation, if you’re interested in participating and/or following along! We’ll also have a new tag each week for each different player that’ll be much more goofy... because these dudes are goobers, so we’re allowed to be too, right? ;)
Anyway, please feel free to participate if you’re so inclined! Join in for one day, one week or whaaaaatever. Either way, we’ll be hangin’ out here and appreciating our favorite boys!
Keep your eyeballs on @kenmorrow‘s blog for the announcement of who we’ll be yelling about first! :)

Story for my Miracle Lovers!
So I have recently learned some new information that may interest a few people. My family has been going up to the same area of Minnesota since the 1930's, north of the Twin Cities, in a town called Nisswa (which is about 20 miles from Brainerd). It's fair enough to say that the area-- known as the Gull Lake Chain-- is a place for tourists, although we stay in a quaint resort on the northern part of Gull Lake. When my father stayed when he was growing up, however, was called Minnewawa Lodge on Clark Lake, which was bought and renamed to... drumroll please... Minnesota Hockey Camps (a place that TJ Oshie goes to train at every year!!!) So before it became a public hockey camp, the Rangers would use it to train at, specifically when Herb Brooks coached them. My dad just decided to tell me this year that during part of the time that the deal to sell the lodge to the Rangers was going on, he was eating breakfast with his family and a few friends who just happened to be at the resort in the mess hall/cafeteria/whatever it was known as at the time. This room had really long tables, so multiple groups could sit at them comfortably, and my dad just happened to be at the edge of his group. Who walks up and eats beside him? Herb Brooks, and another member of the Rangers training staff at the time (my dad had no idea who the other man was, as he was an avid Blues fan). Now, did my dad ask for an autograph? Of course not, but he did strike up a conversation with him. Dad's name is Dan, which Herb quite liked as his son's name is Danny. Dad asked him how the winters in Minnesota were. Herb asked him about college. Dad was in his late teens/early twenties at the time, so he doesn't really remember too many specifics, but did say it was like talking to another regular guy. He finally remembered to congratulate him on Lake Placid on his way to throw his trash away and head outside. He saw him a small handful of other times, but only talking to adults. But still, he sat next to Herb and had a conversation and everything, and didn't even tell me until now!!!! And one more cool thing. Our resort, as I previously stated, is a very quiet, placid resort, that to me is completely appropriate for up there. Because of its smaller size, we know the owners very well. My mom was up talking to them one day when she mentioned how excited I was by the story Dad had told me, and told them how I loved hockey in general, and specifically was obsessed with the Miracle on Ice. They informed my mom that I would probably die with the knowledge that Bill Baker was their dentist, and they had known him forever and had dinner frequently with him. My jaw practically dropped to the floor. Now if only they would be pals with Pav.... But I couldn't believe it!!!
