Three things: 1. Is it Aleksandrov, or Alexandrov? The URL is Boris_Alexandrov, and his son's name is Viktor Alexandrov, with the URL Viktor_Alexandrov, but the page writes it as Aleksandrov, with the external sources all being Aleksandrov as well.

2. Is his date of death confirmed? I can't read Russian which is where the source comes from. The reason I ask this, is because on his son's page it says

"At the age of 16, Alexandrov became the youngest player to score in the World Junior Ice Hockey Championship. He never played for the senior Kazakhstan team however. His father was fired as coach of Kazakhstan and Viktor vowed never to play for the country again."

and Boris died when Viktor was 16 years old, so that is a 6 month gap between Boris getting fired and him dying. I mean, I know of Bear Bryant and stuff but it just seems a little unlikely.

3. First time editing a wiki-discussion, am I doing it right? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.59.180.130 (talk) 11:54, 1 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
