I was wondering what the condition of hockey in Ukraine and Belarus. Obviously all post-soviet states had a big drop in talent around the 90s, but has it rebounded since then. Belarus u18 is in D1A and Ukraine is in D1B, any good players there? Have the KHL/VHL/MHL teams helped at all? Oh, and also have any good players defected to Russia (I know some from KZ have)?
