Career

Boris Alexandrov played only one full season in 1976 with the Team USSR, playing in 19 games, scoring four goals and winning an Olympic gold medal and a bronze in the Canada Cup in that season.^[2] But he had a very long career at the club level, which lasted well into the 1990s. Alexandrov began to play hockey with Torpedo Ust-Kamenogorsk in 1972, but in 1973 joined powerhouse CSKA Moscow and played there until 1978. With CSKA Moscow Alexandrov won three Soviet Championships titles (1975, 1977, 1978) and three European Champions Cup titles (1974, 1976, 1978). After leaving CSKA Moskva Alexandrov played one season with SKA MVO Moscow, before joining Spartak Moscow from 1980-82. In 1980 while playing with Spartak Moscow Alexandrov was selected as part of the best line at the Soviet Championships. From 1982-88 Alexandrov again played with Torpedo Ust-Kamenogorsk, before spending three seasons abroad, playing with HC Milano Saima (Italy), Ferencvárosi TC (Hungary) and Alisa Moscow (Russia). Alexandrov ended his playing career with Torpedo Ust-Kamenogorsk from 1992-96. In 1995 at the age of 40, he also played four games for the Kazakhstan national team and scored two goals. From 1996 until his untimely death in 2002, Alexandrov worked as a head coach of both Torpedo Ust-Kamenogorsk and the Team Kazakhstan. On 31 July 2002 Alexandrov died in a head-on collision with another car en route from Chelyabinsk to Moscow.
