Former Ukrainian NHL player joins the fight against Russia
Dmitri Khristich a veteran of 811 NHL games with the Capitals, Kings, Bruins & Maple Leafs is one of only 12 players from Ukraine to ever play in the NHL. Khristich by far had the most success of all Ukrainians though with 596 points in those 811 games.
After the Russian invasion of Ukraine, we have just learned that this former NHLer has picked up arms and has joined the fight, defending his home country.
«We are fighting hard, doing our best,» Kristich said via Miller. «We need you to tell the Russian people what is really going on. All they hear is propaganda and lies.»
