The fact that real men play hockey is known even to people far from sports. A popular song has been written on this topic. Mikhail Anisin is a famous Russian hockey player. He not only goes on the ice with a stick, but also seriously studies vocals.
The continuity of generations
In the Soviet Union, great importance was attached to the development of physical culture and sports. The main aim was to enable workers to enjoy their leisure time and to maintain good health. Sufficient financial resources were allocated for all kinds of projects, tournaments and sports days. It was during that period that the famous hockey player Vyacheslav Anisin achieved his best results. However, in the early 90s, the situation changed qualitatively. In practice, sports have transformed into a profitable business. Champions and record holders of past years had to reckon with this fact.
Meanwhile, life went on, and on March 1, 1988, the boy Misha was born into the Anisin family. Parents at that time lived in Moscow. The father has already completed his sports career and worked as a coach in one of the children's clubs. Not to say that the need reigned in the house, but they lived modestly, every penny was registered. When Anisin Sr. was invited to play for the Italian club, he agreed. The sports bosses did not object. Many eminent athletes have already worked abroad. Thanks to the merits of his father, little Misha lived for almost five years in sunny Italy.
When the boy was seven years old, he was enrolled in an ordinary Moscow school. Mikhail studied well. He willingly participated in social and sports events. In his free time, he mastered the technique of playing the guitar with street friends. In the third grade, his father took Mikhail to the children's sports hockey school at CSKA. The coaches, who knew well whose son came under their care, treated the newcomer calmly. Many years of practice convincingly testified that children of stellar parents often turn out to be "dull".
Anisin Jr. trained conscientiously. The guy was aware that his future would depend on physical and technical training. Every time, before going to training, Mikhail carefully watched the thematic videos. Canadians first of all mastered the technique of ice skating. Then they honed the throw of the puck from different positions. And there are a lot of such exercises. It is important to note that each coach has his own player training program. Sometimes, even a perfectly trained player, as they say, “does not fit” into the general outline of the game.
Big hockey
Having received his secondary education, Anisin decided to devote himself entirely to a hockey career. In 2005, as a graduate of the CSKA sports school, he was assigned to the Chemist team from the city of Voskresensk near Moscow. The start for the young striker was unsuccessful. For seven matches, Mikhail did not score a single goal. In the next season, he was accepted by the Wings of the Soviets team, which badly needed fresh strength. In the 2007/08 season, Anisin was named the top scorer of the Major League. This was followed by several transitions from one club to another.
In this context, it is important to note that transitions are made not only at the request of the player. The decision is made in the Continental Hockey League. Only consent is required from the hockey player. If he does not want to change his place of work, then he is not persuaded. They can simply be expelled from the team, where it has become unnecessary. In 2012, Anisin was included in the main team of Dynamo Moscow. At the end of the season, the team won the Gagarin Cup. Mikhail became the top scorer of the tournament, scoring 14 goals. This result became the finest hour for the talented hockey player.
Scandals and transfers
Anisin's serious troubles began after the finest hour. The hockey player demanded that his salary be increased. He felt that his work on the ice deserved more significant fees. Mikhail made his request, more like an ultimatum, to the general director of the Dynamo club. The outcome of this conflict was not difficult to predict. As a result of numerous negotiations, mutual insults and grievances, Anisin announced a boycott of the club. As announced, and took off from the main team. They just put him on the bench.
Then Anisin was invited to the Severstal team. Here he played pretty well for two seasons. He consistently threw washers and competently assisted his teammates. In the fall of 2013, the hockey player was "acquired" by the Donbass team from Donetsk. Both the coach and many players were well known to Mikhail. According to all forecasts and estimates, he should have stayed in this club. However, at the away game, Anisin made a brawl at the hotel, having previously taken a substantial share of alcohol inside. The next day, the club terminated the contract with him.
Hobbies and personal life
After leaving the Ukrainian team, Anisin moved along a difficult route. He played excellently for two seasons in the Sochi team. Then he played in Novokuznetsk. Then he spent a year in Kazakhstan. Friends and fans know that Mikhail is serious about vocals. Sings and accompanies himself on the guitar. In 2012, at the All-Star Game in Riga, he performed well a popular Neapolitan song while on the ice.
In 2016, at the close of the season, Mikhail sang a song from the repertoire of the Lesopoval group. In his free time, he tries to expand his repertoire. Almost everything is known about the hockey player's personal life. He has an older half-sister Marina Anisina, who was the wife of Nikita Dzhigurda. Until he is married. In July 2019, Mikhail signed a trial contract with the Sochi club.
