HC Vityaz

HC Vityaz Podolsk plays their home games in the city of Podolsk, Russia, and is a member of the Tarasov Division.  Formed in 1996, the team started out in Podolsk before moving to Chekhov for the 2000 season.  Under the Vityaz Chekhov name from 2004 (the time in which the official name change happened) to this season, the team gained notoriety for employing a goon mentality, featuring former NHL enforcers such as Darcy Verot and Trevor Gillies at some point in their existence.  Currently, the team features on its roster Maxim Afinogenov, Josh Hennessy, and Alexander Korolyuk.
