От издателя
Five former Soviet hockey players who wound up in Detroit in the 1990s and helped to catapult a beleaguered hockey franchise to the top of the summit played a pivotal role in that city’s celebrated comeback. They are The Russian Five, and while they changed their sport forever they also helped bridge rival cultures with their unique style of diplomacy. This is their remarkable story of espionage, defection, heartbreak and triumph – and remarkable courage after a fateful limo crash nearly killed one of them.

What an amazing read!
I thoroughly enjoyed this book! Keith brings so many popular and we’ll known Red Wings personalities to life. A great read from the first page!
Great Revisit with the Russian Five
This is a decent book. It’s such a tremendous story and the author had an active role in making the Russian Five a reality so his perspective is unique. But at times it’s far too over-glorifying of the Russians and it is incredibly repetitive at times, but still an enjoyable read
