Russian Five

The first all Russian, 5-man skating unit in the history of the National Hockey League. Formed by the Detroit Red Wings in the mid-nineties, the line consisted of Sergei Federov, Slava Kozlov, Igor Larionov, Slava Fetisov, and Vladimir Konstantinov. It was this lineup that helped lead the Detoit Red Wings to win the Stanley Cup in the 1996-97 Season, their first in 42 years. The dominance of the Russian Five came to an abrupt end after the Championship win, with Vladimir Konstantinov suffering career-ending injries in a limousine accident with fellow player Slava Fetisov, and team masseur Sergei Mnatsakanov.

When the Russian Five skated onto the ice, the fans at Joe Louis Arena went wild.

Russian High-Five 

A "Russian High-Five" is when someone brutally elbows you in the face. Generally speaking, Russian High-Fives (also known as "Russian Fives") either break several teeth in the mouth or the nose of the receiver, and it is therefore not advisable to greet anyone you actually care about in such a manner.

John: "Ivan, let me introduce you to my girlfriend next week!"

Ivan: "Do you want me to give her a Russian High-Five?"

John: "No! No Russian Fives this time, please!"
