[edit] Death date and alleged resurrection

Legends of Hockey lists his death date as March 2, 2002, though apparently Yegorov came back to life long enough to play 13 games for a team in Moscow during the 2005–06 season.[1] (I am not trying to make fun of Alexei, but rather that website!)

Are there any news reports which give his correct death date? I've seen both 2001 and 2002. List of ice hockey players who died during their playing career would like to know. --Idont Havaname (Talk) 01:52, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

To clarify, HockeyDB lists two Alexei Yegorovs. The other is a goalie who is still alive and was born about a year after the right wing. The right wing's stats definitely stop in 2001. --Idont Havaname (Talk) 01:57, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
No when I researched this article I could find none, in fact the only thing I could come up with conclusively is sometime in 2001, and that was in a Russian hockey website. But if it was in early 2002 that's just as possible. Croat Canuck Say hello or just talk 02:05, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
The San Jose Sharks' official website says March 2, 2002. As for the suicide part, I'll leave the "fact" template there since the sources I found on Google were not conclusive about that. --Idont Havaname (Talk) 02:37, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
