In the News (Sun 27 May 12)

  
  The Summit in 1972: Anatoly Tarasov
Together with the other legendary coach, Arkady Chernyshev from Dynamo Moscow, Anatoly Tarasov laid down the foundation of what now is branded as the "Soviet hockey school".
Both Tarasov and Chernyshev retired from coaching the national team after the Soviet squad won the gold at Olympics in Sapporo in 1972.
Whether one likes or doesn't like Tarasov's approach to hockey, it doesn't seem to be fair to underestimate the role of one of the greatest Soviet coaches while paying tribute to the impressive performance of the Soviet team in September 1972.

 SI.com - Soccer - Woodward to join select band of coaches - Wednesday September 1, 2004 6:49PM
In the mid-1970s, Anatoly Tarasov, head coach of the Soviet national ice hockey team and one of the sport's all-time greats, switched to soccer and took over as coach of CSKA Moscow to try to revive the slumping fortunes of the army club.
Tarasov later said the experiment largely failed because of collusion among the soccer coaches, who decided to teach the old master a lesson by making him the odd man out.
Prior to the switch Tarasov led the Soviet ice hockey team to numerous world and Olympic titles and is still considered one of the great masters, a pioneer in his sport.

“Tarasov’s philosophy was he could condition his team more off the ice than he could on,” says Williamson, who recalls that his trip did not get off on a good note.
Tarasov showed up at the immigration office to bail him out, carrying with his a brown bag and some dandelions sticking out of a bottle of vodka, and an interpreter who “worked” for the government.
Williamson proved to be a good student, returning home with a dryland training routine that would have his players in the best shape of their lives.

 U.S.-Soviet 1980 Olympic Hockey, Miracle on Ice - CDI RW 11 March 2005
As might be expected in a book that doesn't probe the other side, Coffey gives away his lack of Russia expertise in the details.
For example, when describing Anatoly Tarasov's visits to America, he writes that the patriarch of Soviet hockey and former national team coach "developed a fondness for mayonnaise," which is a bit like saying a goateed frat boy developed a fondness for beer on a trip to the Heineken Brewery Museum in Amsterdam.
Coffey obviously failed to take note on his research trip to Moscow that -- to borrow from a Russian saying that puts things in their proper place -- a chicken is not a bird, and a salad without mayonnaise is not a salad.

The Soviet hockey teams coached by Tarasov when they dominated the international game, were not only the best example of a skillful style, they were also the most disciplined -- the toughest mentally.
When they'd come to North America, their passing, skating, puck-control style was incorrectly perceived to mean they were not tough enough to "take a check."
