Double-ply Olympic champion (1984 and 1988). He was inducted into the Russian and Soviet Hockey Hall of Fame in 1982.
After the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) extended the suspension of Russian and Belarusian national teams in 2023, Kozhevnikov stated the following:[1][2]
Well, what can we do? Nothing. The IIHF is not like the International Boxing Federation [IBA] that lets everyone in. There people understand what the conversation is about.
And here they were given a nasty order and carried it out. Everyone blows the same tune. This hockey president [ Luc Tardif ] – he is afraid of everyone. He is French, what can we do? They are all "tolerant".
You have to be patient. We are men! Russia is a man's country.
We will endure, and then we will show them when all this filth is over. It's bad, of course, all this is bad for the development of hockey.
The Finns and the Swedes started rocking the boat, I'm sure. It is a pity that our people are not in the organization [IIHF leadership] there.
The World Championship without the Russian team is the championship of the yard. Latvians also rocked the boat? It's nothing at all, they are nothing. No one listens to them. Finns, Swedes, Czechs – these are the main plotters. But they are also fleas and bedbugs, they do not mean anything.
They've been pressured and they started to stink. Canadians and Americans are more neutral in this regard. However, politics plays a big role in America. Without Russia, no international sporting tournament matters. Our guys need to get through this. All are men, all understand everything.
