enigmas.
Mogliny was like that at times, too

Not Russian, but players who have played with and against Kent Nilsson said the same thing, when he wanted to, he could take over a game. He was called 'The Magic Man' for a reason, some nights he dazzled, other nights he disappeared :D

Speaking of Russian players...

New York Rangers prospect Vitali Kravtsov has rejected an extension in the KHL and appears to be eyeing a return to North America.
Traktor Chelyabinsk general director Ivan Savin told Sports.Ru on Monday he believes Kravtsov will return to the Rangers organization.

It worked so well for Mikhail Girgorenko

We'll see more, I bet. So many are gonna want out now that the Ruble is worth less than toilet paper.

That's a tough question. Kucherov is a more complete player in the sense that he can play a flow game and a greasy physical game. Panarin won't win many physical battles but he also wont lose his head and take stupid penalties at bad times (at least not as often as Kuch). You pretty much always know what you're gonna get with Panarin.

I'd probably go Panarin by a hair, mainly because my team has Laine and I would love to see Panarin feed him.
Seems the kooch is more injury prone..

Breadman doesn’t do shite to get hurt.

I go with the kooch, at least while he’s on the ice, he makes more of it than the very nonchalant player panarin is.

Obviously, I don’t see kucherov play like I do panarin, panarin is one frustrating player to watch. He does come through when you really need it. I guess.

Does Corey Perry get a hat trick tonight or only two goals?

Even tho rangers have surprised, they really should take series, but they probably won’t.

They really have no excuses, even road games , they have had a lot of fan support in Carolina and Tampa.

Oh, and let’s not forget the refs. They suck

5-2 bolts game 4

Goalhorn guy just broke up a good spell in the Rangers zone for TB.
Paying tribute to his brethren in Edmonton as that was his speciality.

/I used to watch coil games just for the premature goal horns
//and laughs
///except that game Professor Scrivens went off against the sharks
////but mostly laughs
