I Went to a RUSSIAN KHL Ice Hockey Game

[@TravellingwithRussell]

Update: I didn't mention what I paid for my ticket, it was 800 rubles, or about $8.50 USD. I bought it right at the ticket office before walking into the stadium. I was in a rush to get there after deciding to go to the game at 4.40pm. The game started at 7.30pm local time. I am still curious if i should call it "Ice Hockey" or just "Hockey" ? Let me know. I post lots of daily content on Telegram if you want to join me over there: t.me/travellingwithrussell If you want to support me, or the channel. Why not leave a Super Thanks.

Just hockey if you choose to follow the Russian pattern.

In Canada, we call it Hockey because everyone knows we are talking about Ice Hockey and not Floor Hockey or Street Hockey. We only clarify what type of hockey if we are playing Indoor Floor Hockey or Street Hockey. If we just say Hockey, that means Ice Hockey.

It is called hockey in Canada. Where you are sitting would cost $300 to $600 Canadian at a Toronto Maple Leaf game. Prices vary and are raised for popular teams. Tickets are over $100 at the highest level. It costs a lot but players in the NHL are paid from $1 to well over $10 million U.S. I will be going to a game to see Ovechkin play in January. Ovechkin "the great 8" now has 866 goals and should pass Gretzky who had 894 maybe this year. Ovechkin had a hat trick last night which is amazing for a 39 year old plyer. Wow - a Russian will be the greatest scorer of all time.

[@СРостова]

Зарплаты игроков НХЛ начинаются кажется от 600 тыс долларов США в год. Да, Овечкин велик, он очевидно самый яркий хоккеист в истории НХЛ. Мак Дэвид хорош, но он не демонстрирует той яркой силовой и сумасшедшей энергии, которая была у Ови. А Грецки понял , что Овечкин обгонит его в гонке лучших снайперов после Гола Ови в ворота Аризоны

[@BSland]

Let's GO Ovi. I'm keeping a close eye on his goal numbers.

[@Shooter.96]

В СКА , где сейчас доигрывает Кузнецов, билет чуть дороже и арена интереснее и больше, наверно похожа на канадскую. Билет там стоит 20-30$ в регулярном 😅 это в городе Санкт-Петербург

Ovi will not only break Gretzky's record, but also open a "900+" club

Will be watching him 23 February against oilers, hopefully he full recover and score a goal. Will be sitting behind him, my wife booked the tickets and she don’t want to tell me what it costs 😅

I moved to Novosibirsk from Canada earlier this year. I used to go to NHL games for the Calgary Flames many times a year, and I just recently went to my first KHL game. Going to the games here made me feel like home. I call it Ice Hockey myself, as that is the official name of the sport. The governing body that overseas the rules is called IIHF, which stands for International ICE Hockey Federation. If it was just called hockey, then the governing body would be the IHF.. For a beginner fan of the sport, you really don't need to focus on all the rules. Just focus on the goals for each team.

Рассел, кроме хоккея на траве и хоккея на льду с шайбой есть еще хоккей на льду с мячем. Хоккей с мячом популярен в Сибири, в него играют на открытых стадионах и матчи собирают десятки тысяч зрителей, особенно он популярен в Сибири и в Швеции. Россия многократный чеипион мира по хоккею с мячем. Но обычно в России хоккеем называют хоккеф с шайбой. Это один из самых популярных в России видов спорта и Россия много раз выигрывала чемпионаты мира о Олимпиады по хоккею. Российская лига КХЛ считается самой сильной в Европе и второй по силе лигой в мире. Самой лучшей и богатой лигой является НХЛ -- североамериквнская лига, обьединяюща полсотни клубов из США и Канады. В этих клубах только половина игроков из США и Канады, остальные игроки из России ( больше 60 хоккеистов), из Швеции, Германии, Финляндии, Чехии, Словакии, Норвегии, Австрии, Дании ,Швейцарии, Латвии,Беларуси и других стран. Главная звезда НХЛ сейчас россиянин Александр Овечкин - он капитан клуба " Washington Capitals". Александр долгое время был самой яркой звездой лиги и сейчас в 39 лет побил почти все рекорды для нападающих в НХЛ и сейчас в шаге до звания лучшего бомбардира по числу голов в НХЛ за всю ее столетнюю историю. Многие россияне являются главными звездами америквнчких хоккейных клубоы - Кучеров в Тампе , Панарин в Вашингтоне и т.д. Еще интересной особенностью хоккея являются нередко вспыхивающие на льду драки. Обычно это драки один на один, но .ывают и коллективные драки. Так например несколько лет назад клубы "Витязь" ( матч которого ты посетил) и "Авангард" установили рекорд по колличеству полученных за драки штрафных минут. Но после матча нечсотря на драки хоккеисты пожимают друг другу руки. Среди болельщиков на стадионе драк между фанатами разных клубов не бывает, ы отличии от футбольных фанатов, драки между клторыми случаются довольно часто.

Thanks.

I usually hear Canadian hockey fans trashing KHL. Ovechkin was booed in Canada many times, especially in Toronto and Deadmonton. They call themselves hockey connoisseurs, but are simple bigots who hate players based on their nation of origin . And their Sportsnet channel is biased and disgusting

[@lenik8911]

What is the local team called? What is the away team called? What does KHL stand for? What is Vityaz? Why do you say thanks instead of spasiba? Why is it dark when the game finished if you went to the stadium at 5 in the morning? How long does a game last?

Каманда хозяев Витязь , каманда гостей Динамо Минск время 9 часов вечера а не 5 утра

[@Gods1Wife]

Do they have safety features like trains with airbags yet ?

[@LikeSRu]

HC Vityaz not really the best first experience. Not so much people, not good fan group. You need to go to HC Spartak Moscow to feel the real hockey 🫶

[@ЮрийАфанасьев-г4ф]

Если жена русская она не подсказывает как ехать?

[@mistere287]

It is good you need to run alot more

[@Alexei1925]

Витязь мало популярная команда и атмосфера на стадионе слабая

Я понимаю прекрасно что Рассел нашел "свою аудиторию" с этой параллельной реальностью, и что бы не вызывать волну хейта со стороны лояльных подписчиков, не показывает негатив. Однако ему пора посетить Главпочтамт на Мясницкой улице, что бы весь мир увидел это позорище. Может его наконец отремонтируют и сделают туалет для посетителей... 🙏🏻

Have you been to the match between Russia and Brunei? It was a legendary game featuring legendary national teams.

[@TravellingwithRussell]

The match was in Krasnodar, another city in Russia.

[@hardclimate]

@@TravellingwithRussell What? Brunei played Russia? the score was probably unreal.

[@Sergey_Bezhentsev]

@@hardclimate Yeah... 😁 Russia national football team records its biggest ever win defeating Brunei 11-0...

[@hardclimate]

@@Sergey_Bezhentsev Oh, I thought they were talking about hockey - can't even picture a Brunei hockey team.

[@Sergey_Bezhentsev]

@@hardclimate ROFL!!! Yeah... Brunei Nationa Ice Hockey Team... I wona see this...🤦🏼‍♂️😁

[@oswald8134]

To whom are you filming this ? Record low one. If you do not know anything about Ice-Hockey please stay out and go for ballet. Vocabulary sounds irritating. You are underestimating the viewers. Well, one less after this episode.

[@oswald8134]

Stadium: Larger in size and typically holds tens of thousands of people. Commonly used for outdoor sports like football, soccer, and baseball. Arena: Smaller in comparison, usually seating between a few thousand and 20,000 people. Designed for indoor sports like basketball, hockey, or volleyball.

[@hamoudeallam645]

Not all viewers know aanythf about hockey. Russel himself said that he do not know much this sport. He just wanted to show his viewers what it is like to visit a hockey game.

[@sherstovir]

how annoying it is when they talk loudly...
