Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery Easter Egg - General Borschevsky

Early in the movie when Austin is being 'thawed', a Russian military person in attendance is identified as General Borschevsky. This is Mike Myers' reference to former Toronto Maple Leaf Nikolai Borschevsky. He was a little-known player who scored an overtime series winning goal for Toronto when they beat Detroit in the NHL playoffs (1992) which is still considered one of the larger upsets of all time. In years following, Myers frequently appeared on talk shows wearing Nikolai Borschevsky jerseys and talking at length about his love for the Leafs.
