The Russian Five

This is the story of those five Russian baseball stars who created one of their most memorable chapters at Motor City sports history and also helped propel the Detroit Red Wings. The film gives the story of the Red Wings' plan in luring the five Russian players, including the defections of Vladimir and Fedorov Konstantinov. Additionally, it offers new insight into many important moments in Wings' history, for example trainer Bowman's decision to play with the Russian at the identical time, the damn competition between the Wings and Colorado Avalanche, the 1996-97 Stanley Cup run and the horrible limousine injury that seriously injured Konstantinov along with masseur Sergei Mnatsakanov at the celebration aftermath.
