Alexander Sergejewitsch Jakuschew ( Russian Александр Сергеевич Якушев ; born January 2, 1947 in Balaschicha , Russian SFSR ) is a former Russian - Soviet ice hockey player and coach.
Career
Alexander Jakuschew was born on January 2, 1947 in Balaschicha in Moscow Oblast , as there was no maternity clinic in his hometown of Reutov at that time. At first Yakushev was enthusiastic about football and played in the works team of the metallurgical plant "Hammer and Sickle" in Moscow, where both of his parents worked. Later he began to try out the still young sport of ice hockey and was finally spotted by the youth coach of Spartak Moscow and brought into his team. At the age of 14, he made it into the club's youth team and twice won the Soviet championship of his age group with them.
In April 1964, Jakuschew made his debut in what was then Class A , as Boris Majorov fell ill for a short time and Vsevolod Bobrov nominated the then 17-year-old Jakuschew as a replacement. He played a total of five season games by the end of the season. His talent did not go unnoticed by the national coaches either, so that at the end of 1964 he was accepted into the junior national team. With this he traveled to the USA, among other places. Nikolai Epstein , who coached the Soviet B national team at the time, invited Yakushev to the B national team and played with this some games against US and Canadian teams.
At Spartak he formed a very dangerous attack series with Vladimir Shadrin and Alexander Martynjuk , which regularly found itself in the top scorer lists of the Soviet league in the late 1960s and early 1970s. If Spartak won the runner-up in 1966, the team won the Soviet championship a year later . The team was able to repeat this success in 1969 and 1976. He also won the Soviet cup competition with Spartak in 1970 and 1971 .
At the end of his career, Jakuschew received permission to move to Western Europe and played between 1980 and 1983, like his colleague Martynjuk, at Kapfenberger SV before he ended his career. He scored a total of 339 goals in 568 games in the Wysschaja Liga and Klass A.
International
North American ice hockey fans will remember him as the outstanding player of the 1972 Summit Series . Although he was overshadowed by his outstanding teammate Valeri Kharlamov , he was still able to score 7 goals, 4 assists (11 points) by the end of the series. At the Olympic Games in 1972 and 1976 he won the gold medal with the Soviet national ice hockey team.
After retiring as an active player from ice hockey, he coached Spartak Moscow . In 2003 he was honored with the induction into the IIHF Hall of Fame . In 1970 he was inducted into the Russian and Soviet Hockey Hall of Fame . In 2018 he was elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame .
