| Jul-02-17 | | whiteshark: RIP
above link translates to:
The chess federation of Ukraine and Ternopil region with deep regret report that on July 2, in the 60th year, the three-time champion of Ukraine, the silver medalist of the USSR championship of 1986, the chess Olympiad of 1996, the world championship team in 1993, the bronze Prize-winner of the 1998 Chess Olympiad in the national team of Ukraine, winner and prize-winner of a number of national and international competitions, international grandmaster <Vladimir Pavlovich Malanyuk> and express his sincere condolences to his family and friends.
The memory of VP Malanyuk, a cheerful and optimistic person with a fine sense of humor, committed to chess throughout his life, will always remain with us. |

| Jul-03-17 | | cunctatorg: I would like to read any great game of the late Grandmaster at his favorite (as Black) opening of the Leningrad Dutch as a game of the day, entitled: "The Siege of Leningrad"! Of course the aforementioned title is ... a banalite, therefore you could put it as: "The Siege of the Leningrad Dutchman from Ukraine!" |
|
| Jul-03-17 | | bubuli55: Rest In Peace |
|
| Jul-03-17 | | siggemannen: RIP Vladimir Pavlovich, his dutch games are a treat for any serious practitioner of the opening |
|
| Jul-03-17 | | morfishine: RIP Malaniuk. At true chess artist in the same class as Bronstein or Super Nez |

 | | Honza Cervenka: Vladimir Malaniuk was one of finest Soviet players from the generation overshadowed by Karpov and Kasparov dominance. But in 1980s he was definitely among top 50 players in the world. I remember a lot of his games from chess journals and books of that period, sometimes he was on the receiving end like in Chiburdanidze vs V Malaniuk, 1982 but in many cases he was the winner like in V Malaniuk vs Short, 1984 or Polugaevsky vs V Malaniuk, 1983. Rest in peace, Vladimir Pavlovich. |
|
| Jul-03-17 | | CountryGirl: The Netherlands should declare a National Day of Mourning for Vladimir - he played the Dutch so often and so well. RIP. |

 | | perfidious: RIP to a tough, aggressive player from whom I learnt a bit about the Leningrad Dutch, back in the 1990s. |

 | | MissScarlett: And you consider that sufficient sourcing? |
|
| Jul-12-17 | | WorstPlayerEver: <MissScarlett> The point is: there are no sources.. so I am likely to believe there is something very peculiar going on. "Am 2. Juli ist Großmeister Vladimir Pavlovich Malaniuk (1957-2017) vorzeitig aus dem Leben geschieden. Am 21. Juli wäre er 60 Jahre alt geworden." http://de.chessbase.com/post/vladim... Now, my German is not doing so well, but 'vorzeitig' could point to different things. So much I do understand. And one of them is: he was killed. To be more specific. |

The chess world, specifically the Ukrainian chess world, has lost a legend this week following the successful assassination attempt on the life of Grandmaster Vladimir Malaniuk on July 2. [...]
Sadly, he was found dead by mysterious causes (confirmed immediately as a successful assassination attempt) and is no longer with us on this Earth. Please post pictures of flowers and show more of his games to honour our beloved's memory.> https://www.chess.com/forum/view/ch... Given the range of responses, chess-players, in general, well, people, in general, seem a curiously incurious lot. |
|
| Jul-12-17 | | WorstPlayerEver: <MissScarlett> I read that yes. But that is not an official source. If a GM dies, it usually, at least in my country, would be in the news. That's why I find it peculiar. Even with the situation of the Ukraine in mind. |
|
| Jul-12-17 | | WorstPlayerEver: PS with "official" I mean that de chessbase dot com would have given a Ukrainian newspaper -for instance- as their source. |

| | MissScarlett: Generally speaking, the site lacks East European contributors. Maybe they're all too busy working in Britain. |

| Jul-21-17 | | WorstPlayerEver: https://simple.m.wikipedia.org/wiki... Weird article; he didn't die at 60 and certainly not in Amsterdam. He death remains a mystery. |

| Sep-05-24 | | dehanne: I like how Malaniuk occasionally played the Bird with white just to get a Leningrad Reversed. |
