The Russian Five
This is the narrative of the five Russian hockey celebrities who helped propel the Detroit Red Wings into two Stanley Cup championships and generated among their most memorable chapters at Motor City sport history. The film gives the behind-the-scenes narrative of the Red Wings' strategy in luring the five Russian players, including the under-cover-of-night defections of Fedorov and Vladimir Konstantinov. It also gives new insight into many important minutes in Wings' history, including coach Bowman's decision to play with all the Russian Five at exactly the identical time, the damn competition between the Wings and Colorado Avalanche, the 1996-97 Stanley Cup run and the horrific limousine accident that seriously wounded Konstantinov and masseur Sergei Mnatsakanov at the celebration wake.
