Yes!!! Their government did not allow their players to play in the NHL because they were Russian! They would not issue them passports to leave the country even after being drafted by an NHL team. It wasn't really until the fall of the USSR when they were allowed to play in the NHL. Watch the "Russian Five" documentary to see how it was.

It's Social Justice plain and simple. Like it or lump it.
