Aleksey Morozov-ApilinnaSky

Alexei Morozov was destined to become a great hockey player, because he grew up in a sports family. The player was able to make a brilliant career, become an ice star and lead the KHL.

Alexey Alekseevich Morozov was born on February 16, 1977 in Moscow. The boy has been fond of sports since childhood, and this is not surprising, because his father was a hockey coach. Already in the early years, Lesha and older brother Valentin played with plastic clubs and small gates, and then went out on real ice.

The boy started his career in sports at Lokomotiv as part of the team born in 1975. Due to the fact that the other guys were older, Morozov sometimes looked weaker against their background, but even then he demonstrated enviable agility and tenacity. The grandmother drove the future champion to training, who did not miss a single game with the participation of her grandson.

Later brother Lesha was called to CSKA, and he moved to Wings of the Soviets after his father. In those years, Morozov dreamed of becoming a goalkeeper, but dad advised him to go forwards, which the hockey player never regretted. And the athlete could realize his dream of standing at the goal while playing football, which he was fond of at the amateur level.

After leaving school, the young man already firmly knew that his vocation was in sports, so he applied to the Russian State Academy of Physical Culture, where he received a coaching education. But as the second higher Morozov chose jurisprudence, which he studied at the Kazan Federal University.

The personal life of a sports star seemed to be trying to establish itself by fate. For the first time he caught a glimpse of his future wife Irina Morozova when he was waiting for a friend at the entrance. And then young people accidentally collided in a supermarket and could no longer part. In those years, Lesha lived in the United States, and the girl without hesitation went abroad after her lover.

The guy quickly realized that he could not imagine his life without Irina, and less than a year later he proposed to her. They decided to play the wedding in Moscow, for which they had to persuade the registrar to paint them immediately, without waiting for the allotted time to think. Soon the lovers became parents, their first-born Nikita was born, then the daughters Anastasia and Diana, as well as the youngest son Daniel, were born.

The eldest child decided to follow in his father's footsteps and began playing hockey from an early age. At first he studied under the guidance of godfather Ilya Kovalchuk, and then moved to Wings of the Soviets. Morozov supports the heir's undertakings and shares with him advice from personal experience.

The professional career of an athlete began in the youth team "Krylia Sovetov". Already in the first season, he managed to score 15 goals, which impressed the representatives of the National Hockey League (NHL), who invited the guy to play abroad. However, he decided to gain experience at home and stayed at the Moscow club.

Soon Lesha began to be attracted to the games for the Russian national team. 1998 was a triumphant year in his biography, because it was then that he won the title of the silver medalist of the Olympic Games in Nagano. After that, the athlete decided that he was ready to move to America.

The reality turned out to be cruel, because it was not easy for the guy to settle down in the new country. If in "Wings" Alexey was a star, then in the "Pittsburgh Penguins" he had a chance to be content with the role of an ordinary player, which did not suit Morozov. In addition, it was difficult to get used to the new realities, to get used to the order and culture. At first, the hockey player did not even know how to send a letter in an elementary way, until a friend from Russia explained to him.

There were also funny moments. Darius Kasparaitis lived next door to the champion, who could often drop in for a visit at an inopportune moment. Once a Lithuanian hockey player came to Morozov's home, emptied the refrigerator in a few minutes and went about his business. The door was always kept open especially for him.

The time spent in the USA tempered Alexei. Only there he understood what it means to work for real. Persistence paid off, and soon the guy began to show good results, but still decided to return to Russia and move to Ak Bars, where he spent the best years of his career. Then the athlete was in excellent shape and weighed 91 kg with a height of 187 cm.

In subsequent years, the box of achievements of the sports star was rapidly replenished with prestigious awards. He repeatedly became the winner of the World Championship, the Gagarin Cup and the Eurotour. During the same period, he scored the legendary hat-trick in the match with the Swedish team and set the record for the number of goals scored in one game in the KHL. And in 2010, the champion was entrusted with carrying the Russian flag at the Olympic Games in Canada.

In 2013, Alexei unexpectedly announced that he was moving to CSKA, and then completely ended his sports career. However, the man did not want to finally part with hockey and soon received a position in the Youth Hockey League (MHL).

In February 2020, news emerged that the former athlete had been elected as the new president of the Continental Hockey League (KHL). In the first interview at the new post, the man announced that he was going to expand cooperation with the NHL.

Now Alexey Alekseevich keeps in touch with subscribers through a page on Instagram, where he often reports on biography events and shares a photo with his family.
