The line combinations thing, not the Anderson-Boudreau thing (apparently Kovy and Ovie are having a grand time together at the morning skate as well). The Kahlua Line has been reunited, and the first line is now...what, exactly? The Fabergé Line? The Bear Line? The Bronze Horsemen? The Commissars? The Duma? The Cossacks?
What shall we call the long-awaited and probably inevitable Kovalchuk-Antropov-Afinogenov line?

The Cossack or Comrade Connection?
How about the Bolshe-check Revolution?
Hmmm, kinda hard to say, but the socialist theme might work if the "wealth of (goals) is distributed evenly".
The Obama Czar line?
No no, there can be only one Czar. Antro and Max are merely princelings and/or dukes.
i like Comrade Connection
What about the Mafia Line? I mean Russians are the founders of the Mafia anyways... we Italians just took it and made it better.
Mr. Speaker-
Both Cossack Connection and Comrade Connection are wondrous. I think those might have to claim a tied win.
A2B-
I like the general Mafia idea, and it's a bit more current than the Soviet references, but it's an Italian (or is it Sicilian? I is ignorant here) word, which disqualifies it in my opinion. What do the Russians actually call their mobsters? It seems weird that I've watched Eastern Promises and Tycoon so many times and never actually heard the Russian word for mafia...
its apparently translated to "Bratva" in english... not sure who is the creative mind that can spin that to a catch line, although you have to admit that word itself is kind of cool
As do I, Spike.
Am I the only one who remembers that Antro is a Kazakh?
Oh, the pedantry.
Like Evgeni Nabokov, Antro was born in Kazakhstan. He's an ethnic and linguistic Russian though. He's Russian in the same way that, say, Albert Camus was French, even though he was born in Algeria.

wo why don't we call them the Soviet Brigade then? Then ALL countries are represented
The Perestroika Line. They cram goals down the other team's throats like Gorbachev crammed reform down the collective throat of the Kremlin.
I like the Perestroika Line, Cossack Connection, and Comrade Connection. All damn fine. It'll be fun to watch them for sure.
