Had a great chat with Alexei Yashin at our Islanders' Alumni weekend, and wanted to share a video from the great work he's doing in Moscow. Twice a week during the winter, Alexei secures icetime at rinks and provides free hockey lessons. The local rink provides the skates, and Alexei and his peeps provide the equipment. Here's a cool clip he shared with me from one of the sessions. Keep up the awesome work Yash!
