    For a big guy, Kozlov’s legs sure look skinny. No tree trunks on him. Just out of curiosity, where was that photo taken? Looked like any American suburban backyard.

    The picture was taken during a trip to St. Petersburg, Russia, where Ovechkin, Kozlov, Gonchar, Malkin, Semin and others have started their own mini training camp. The players were invited to a “banya” (Russian sauna) at a friend’s “dacha”. SovSport were there helping CBC to film a special on the ‘72 series.
