from barry beck...
Not far from kilometer marker No. 73 on the highway which connects St. Petersburg and Moscow is a memorial stone bearing the inscription: "The star of Russian hockey fell here."
The stone marks the spot where a car crash claimed the life of Russian hockey legend Valeri Kharlamov and his wife on Aug. 27, 1981.
Almost a quarter of a century later, that star will rise again in Toronto on Monday, when Kharlamov will become only the second Soviet player to enter the Hockey Hall of Fame without having ever played in the National Hockey League.
