On September 6, Igor Tuzik and Vladimir Myshkin - both legends of Soviet and Russian ice hockey - received "Our Youth Has No End" awards at a special ceremony dedicated to those who have made large contributions to the development of physical culture and sport in both Moscow and the whole of Russia.

"I am very grateful to the organisers of this event and the Mayor of Moscow for their recognition of my efforts," said Vladimir Myshkin.

I hope that our current stars will continue sustaining our victorious traditions while bringing glory to our ice hockey."
