Sergei Viktorovich Fjodorow ( Russian Сергей Викторович Фёдоров ; English transcription: Sergei Viktorovich Fedorov ; born December 13, 1969 in Pskow , Russian SFSR ) is a former Russian ice hockey player who played 1431 games in Detroit between 1986 and 2012 Red Wings , Mighty Ducks of Anaheim , Columbus Blue Jackets and Washington Capitals in the National Hockey League and 179 others for HK Metallurg Magnitogorsk in the Continental Hockey League . From the end of his career from 2012 to 2017, he was General Manager of HK CSKA Moscow . He was also inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2015 , as well as into the IIHF Hall of Fame in 2016 .

Career

He was elected 74th by the Detroit Red Wings in the 1989 NHL Entry Draft . Previously, he played at the legendary Russian club HK CSKA Moscow in a row with the later superstars Pawel Bure and Alexander Mogilny and was drawn in the same year as Bure and one year to Mogilny.

When Fyodorov was at the Goodwill Games in Seattle with HC CSKA Moscow in 1990 , he snuck out of the hotel room and took a plane to Detroit. He was one of the many Russian players who fled the ice hockey system of the Soviet Union to play in the National Hockey League .

He probably had his best time in the 1993/94 NHL season . That year he won the Hart Memorial Trophy , Frank J. Selke Trophy and the Lester B. Pearson Award and finished the season with 56 goals and 120 points in second place in the scoring table behind Wayne Gretzky of the Los Angeles Kings .

Another prize - the Frank J. Selke Trophy - he received in 1996 after playing another 100-point season with 39 goals and 107 points. A year later he became a member of the Red Wings' first Stanley Cup championship team since 1955 and contributed 20 points in 20 play-off games for Detroit. In 1998 he repeated the success with the team as part of the Russian Five . In the same year he won the silver medal at the Winter Olympics with the Russian national team . In 1998 he was honored with induction into the Russian and Soviet Hockey Hall of Fame .

For the 1997/98 season , Fyodorov received $ 28 million, the largest salary ever paid to an NHL player. However, his base salary was only $ 2 million. However, there were two bonus clauses that said he would get $ 14 million for signing the contract and another $ 12 million if he with the team at least made it to the Conference Finals.

Sergei Fyodorov, 2010

In recent years, Fyodorov has been criticized for his lack of willingness to perform, especially in the injured 1999/2000 season when he appeared in only 68 games, which was one reason for his declining overall score.

Nevertheless, Fyodorov was able to continue to score points in every game on average in the new, doggedly attacking environment of the NHL and, with the exception of three seasons, never scored less than 30 goals per season. As a result of the criticism, he could not be held at the Red Wings and so he moved to the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim in 2003 . In the fall of 2005, Fyodorov moved to the Columbus Blue Jackets after five games with the Mighty Ducks . He was eventually signed by the Washington Capitals during the 2007-08 season .

With the Mighty Ducks he reached his thousandth point and was the first Russian and fifth European to ever succeed.

Fyodorov was one of the most offensively and defensively talented ice hockey players of his active time. Both the Red Wings, as well as the Mighty Ducks, Fyodorov wore an "A" as assistant captain on his chest.

Sergei Fyodorov made headlines when he and tennis player Anna Kurnikova, who was twelve years his junior, were a couple. According to Fyodorov, they even married in 2001, but only divorced a short time later.

With the expiry of his contract in Washington at the end of the 2008/09 season , his 18-year career in the NHL also ended. On June 25, 2009, Fyodorov signed a two-year contract with the Russian club HK Metallurg Magnitogorsk , for which he was in the Continental Hockey League until 2012 , before ending his career. He then returned to his home club CSKA Moscow and became its general manager.

Fyodorov took part in the 2013 Spengler Cup for CSKA Moscow . During the tournament he played two games and scored one goal before the Russian left prematurely. A comeback in the Continental Hockey League was originally planned; Fyodorov had trained for this for months. Ultimately, however, this did not materialize.

He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in June 2015 , followed by the IIHF Hall of Fame the following year.
