Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, who is taking training these days from the legends of ice hockey, is doing really well and has scored several goals on Friday at a Moscow arena.
The Russian premier promised to learn to skate well enough to play hockey during a video conference with young Russian sportsmen in February.
During Friday’s training, Putin wore a red-blue uniform with the Russian national emblem. His number was 11….
Putin trained with retired NHL star Pavel “Russian Rocket” Bure, a former head coach of the Russian national hockey team Vyacheslav Bykov and the president of the CSKA ice hockey club Vyacheslav Fetisov.
