Russia Came, Russia Conquered, and Russia Was Very Well Covered

Congratulations not only to Team Russia for its performance at the Worlds but for the excellent coverage of the tournament by Sovetsky Sport, Russia's largest newspaper.
The Russian Hockey Federation was thrilled with SovetskySport's coverage of the team at Worlds, so much so that they were the only print media allowed in the dressing room after Sunday's gold medal win. They were also the only print media invited to fly back with the team on their charter back to Moscow. According to our good friend Dmitry Chesnokov, a lot of stories from that champions' flight will forever remain unpublished.
Incidentally, these Russian hockey players -- they're a rather photogenic bunch, aren't they?
