didn't they put guys on their team from the Russian minor leagues instead of all NHLers? - stewie Mar 1, 14:08
clone Ovechkin so they can guarantee he shows up -- nm - Beryllium Mar 1, 13:33
Every other 18-year old has just been told, "You play defence now!" -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Mar 1, 13:30 7

  - I don't see this happening. If anything, there might be a few more bucks to attract players from her to go there. - Name Withheld By Request Mar 1, 13:37 5
    - I mean more in the needing to pick guys from the KHL just to prove their league is good. - Reagen Mar 1, 13:41 4
      - I didn't follow their selection process too closely. Who was the NHL guys left off that stuck out? -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Mar 1, 13:43 3
        
        ANTROPOV!!!! -- nm - some loser Leafs fanboy Mar 1, 13:45 2
        
        He would have done more than Zaripov. - Reagen Mar 1, 13:50 1
        
        Maybe then, but for the most part I would say it's just a down cycle for Russia d-men that bit them. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Mar 1, 14:05
teach their guys how to take a hit. -- nm - tRuMaN Mar 1, 13:29
Teach six guys to skate backwards. -- nm - Reagen Mar 1, 13:28
concentration camps. nm -- nm - groiny Mar 1, 13:27
