Prey for Sharangovich

Well. It`s a great game to watch on actual form of Blackwood.

ok. Let`s go with more content.

Our prospects games gathers and now my watch begins.

2002 year. game against Israel. I did remember it correctly. You especially like when Germans crush israelis? How tipical for German. (sorry for that joke. I have relatives in German and Isreal. Please, please don't be offended. I really don't understand how not to cross the line in English)

is it soccer 2002 refference?

This is a postmodernistic act with rangers hockey.

change a couple of words.

Big ranger in a suit of Panarin. Take that off, what are you?

Doguie and PK? Do they know? Canada players who did draft by.. boston and mtl? Made in jersey?

Not a bad game. bernier is our new starter судя по всему. And the battle for bottom six role is going online. Really like it. Holtz looks like potential NHL ready. It`s interesting how he will manage his physics. And if Ruff decide to give him a chance - where they will land him. Dougie

Shaq playin second pair minutes overall, sometimes he lead Salavat in TOI. Salavat are league leaders. He has a lot of responsibilities for 19 yo. He play in first pp on the blue line. He is much better skater this year. Play much better with the puck under pressure. He has good potential for driving, he has absolutely great first pass. He makes some mistakes here and there in decision making with the puck in offensive zone, but its ok for his age. He looks very solid for his age. Misyul playin third pair minutes in Lokomotiv. Good in PK, like I saw, he did well everything lokomotiv did ask him. He is very good skater. Not as fast as Shakir, but much smoother. He have a lesser upside in offensive zone, but he still have some, I like how he working in forecheck in offensive zone. Pretty safe, accurate and always with understanding how things can go wrong. I would say he has very few mistakes for 20yo defenseman. He play like a defensive defenseman of healthy man. Zaitsev is a rock, hit hard. He lost some speed in this year, but he is heavier this year. Play complete defensive role on the right side. Second line minutes. But he has no offensive upside. I don’t think he will ever travel to us. Even if he will win a battle for the spot, he will never play second pair role. And never have enough money to compensate difference in cost of life. And it is sad because for now he is much better right defenseman than our options. He could be good partners for our puckmovers. He is complet working defenseman. Fast enough, good protecting of the zone, gap control etc. Gritsyuk play on the third line now, starting as a fourth liner. He is very good line driver and has good skills. Fast, good shot and passing, good puck protecting, he is active on the board, I think he could be better on the short rink. But he must mature. He isn’t active enough in defensive zone. And his acting with the puck/when his team with the puck is much better when his team is without the puck. For now he looks raw and I want from him to be much more active in defensive forecheck, and start to understand how protect zones. I think Shaq and Misyul have real potential to be NHLers. Shaq looks like second line defenseman with potential to be first line defenseman. Misyul… I think he has potential/ceiling to play second pair minutes. He doesn’t have future as pp specialist. And Gritsyuk has sleeping potential to be middle six forward.

Only one can be the top.

Now I can say. I DO REALLY LIKE how we picked in 2020. Every first rounder looks very good now.

HOLTZHOLTZHOLZ!

This is a part why is so encouraging to watch our kids from the draft day(and even before), how they manage their game before NHL, how they translate their game. This is so fun and intriguing. And after they make their first steps in NHL. I feel myself like a... father.

This is how sound Holtz`s hating silence.

18

and what a pass by Holtz there was on Yegor`s goal. Mercer looks nervous

Johnsson is not good. again. And our special teams still act like our special teams. good old fashioned

I can`t say he is good passer. And can`t say he is bad. I hadn`t watch him enough to make solution. He did play one game in the beggining of the season and than he didnt play full month. Impression from some WJC games and a couple of KHL games - he is bottom-6 hound with limited offensive upside. But with good potential to be particular role player. If he will continue to play I will make more videos.

Bardakov came out for the first time since the beginning of the championship and spent a few minutes on the ice. He was regular player on the ice in the first period, then SKA began to lose 1-4 and coach Bragin tried to take the game back and use only three lines. Bardakov plays as we want him to. Forecheck, hits, pressure. From a recent interview with SKA coach before the game: - Zakhar Bardakov has not played since September 2. Why? — We determine the physical condition of the players. We are preparing him. The time will come, and he will be in the squad. — Does he have an injury? - No. We are just preparing the player. He moved from another club. I say again, his time will come to play. For the next year, Bardakov does not have a contract signed with SKA. Which may well be the reason for his sitting on the bench.
