Off topic: Russian wedding with Canadian twist
Jeremy Jablonski, Jon Mirasty and Kip Brennan were involved in the street fight at the wedding in Magnitogorsk in August during KHL's pre-season exhibition tournament. Sport-Express says that they were provoked by drunk guests of someone's wedding.
Russian and English profanities unite in this video :)
Second video in case the first will be pulled..
Here is the comment via Sport-Express of their head coach Andrei Nazarov:
Back in August these Canadian guys were only acquainted with Russian folk traditions. And did not know that there's no wedding without a fight...
haha
Yep, there is even a song by a Russian equivalent of Bob Dylan Vladimir Vysotski about Russian wedding:
Потом у них была уха [Then they had ukha]Pardon my translation... :)
И заливные потроха, [And the jellied tripe,]
Потом поймали жениха [Then they caught the bridegroom]
И долго били, [And beat him up for a while]
Потом пошли плясать в избе, [Then they went to dance in the house,]
Потом дрались не по злобе [Then they fought each other not out of malice]
И все хорошее в себе [And all that was good in them]
Доистребили. [Was destroyed]
Jon Mirasty told to RIA Novosti, "I don't know anything about it. Maybe it was someone that looked like me."
Update:
I forgot that Evgeny Kuznetsov was recently married. His wedding was unusually peaceful, but they made an effort for that:
Q: Any fist fights at the wedding?
Kuznetsov: Everything was quiet, peaceful and calm. Even if someone was on bad terms with each other, we had seated them in a correct way, as they say.

@TJ: thanks for the comic relief. Lately it seems we've been stuck in the hockey equivalent of Ingmar Bergman's "The Sorrow and the Pity."
Correction: I meant Marcel Ophuls for "The Sorrow and the Pity." Ingmar Bergman's "The Seventh Seal" is also appropriate. :)
Or maybe "Crime and Punishment" ala Sasha ,Jr.
