Pushkarev adjusts to new life
By SCOTT FISHER, CALGARY SUN
As they do after every home game, the Calgary Hitmen shed their equipment, walk down the hall to the Flames dressing room and ride the stationary bikes for 15 minutes. Veteran centre Shaun Landolt strolls out of the exercise room, clearly searching for something, or as it turns out, someone.
Peering down the hallway, Landolt sees him.
"Pushy!" he hollers. "C'mon!"
Rookie import Konstantin Pushkarev -- or simply 'Pushy' to his teammates -- hurries to join the workout, trying in vain to explain his tardiness.
It's a familiar scene at the 'Dome. If you see Pushkarev, Landolt won't be too far away.
