Evgeny Kuznetsov and Dmitry Orlov participate in ‘From Pure Heart’, help raise 20 million rubles for charity

On Monday, Caps’ Russians Evgeny Kuznetsov and Dmitry Orlov participated in From Pure Heart – a charity hockey game first started in 2009 by Ilya Kovalchuk and Alex Ovechkin. Ovechkin, who’s in South Florida with his wife Nastya and one-week-old baby Sergei, was unable to participate.

This year’s game took place at Shayba Arena in Sochi and featured some new international firepower. Hockey Hall of Famers Teemu Selanne and Jari Kurri joined Russian national stars Kovalchuk, Pavel Datsyuk, Evgeni Malkin, and Alexander Radulov on the ice to help raise nearly $294k for charity.

Kuznetsov and Orlov, who played on the same team as Selanne, won 10-8. Orlov registered three assists while Kuznetsov went point-less.

Dmitry Orlov’s memorable day with Stanley Cup includes flamethrower entrance, Cup going to wrong Russian city

Capital’s defenseman Dmitry Orlov is typically quiet on and off the ice. During his Stanley Cup day, he entered a private party with flamethrowers.

But Orlov’s day with the Cup almost went down in flames due to a travel snafu. The trophy was accidentally sent to Novosibirsk, instead of Orlov’s hometown of Novokuznetsk, and the Cup had to be helicoptered in.
