Huge disclaimer: I don’t know jack about hockey, but I do know when Vladimir Putin takes the ice everyone just lets the man do whatever he wants. You know, better to let the Russian Pres do some damage and score a bunch of goals than risk death.
As you can see below, the 64-year-old suited up for the Night Hockey League Gala Match and there were goals — albeit unimpressive goals — aplenty:

It’s really like Vlady was in quicksand out there:

Send your prayers out to this goalie who stuffed Vlady twice:

Vlady obviously had some extra motivation after CBS came in hot pregame:
