Confirmed Signing with Link: Andrei Mironov in Colorado

[bleedgreen]

I love the hits. Never had a problem with hip checks.

 

[malkinfan]

LOL another guy to be a regular feature on coaches corner

 

[Drij]

He will spend next year in the AHL then bolt back to the KHL in a year.

Maybe.
By this boy better then Tryamkin.

 

[Kshahdoo]

Nah, he isn't better than Tryamkin.

Now confirmed by the team

 

[Cousin Eddie]

Well, the Avs may be awful but they wont be easy to play against. Zadorov and Mironov on the same blue line will be terrifying.

I expect to see a lot of threads on the main board about those two

Zadorov simply hits hard. Not dirty at all. Mironov on the other hand appears to get a little too low sometimes. I can see him being very unliked by fans of other teams. Hopefully he stiffens up and plays a little cleaner but I don't like a lot of his KHL hits.

 

[D0ctorCool]

Hmmm... I had him going to Boston. Interesting.

?? He was drafted by Colorado.

I imagine he'll clean up his game a bit now that he's in NA.

The Avs owned his rights...

 

[cgf]

Maybe he's mixing up Mironov and Butcher, who is also avs property but will probably sign with another organization who's AHL team is less of a mess in August

 

[Cousin Eddie]

That's a strange place to have him going.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

...apparently not

Well if your opinion is the gold standard for it, then yes the NHL and it's fans have forgotten what a hip check is.


All of those hits were fantastic. I must say I cant wait until he lays his first one out in the NHL, the uproar from fans will be hilarious.

 

[Mighty Makar]

LOL another guy to be a regular feature on coaches corner

Exactly!

 

[EdAVSfan]

We'll probably suck but injure players.

Fans of other teams will laugh and be angry at the same time.

 

[wej20]

That's a strange place to have him going.

He just had to go there to catch his connecting flight to Denver.

 

[Theo Von]

 

[LeonDraisaitl]

That dude earlier in the thread called it

 

[Theo Von]

He will spend next year in the AHL then bolt back to the KHL in a year.

Yup, @LeonDraisaitl. Ding ding ding.

 

[Goulet17]

I don't see how he feels he was misled, unless he believes he was guaranteed a spot in the NHL, which seems very unlike the Avs (or any NHL organization's approach). They gave him opportunities and he really failed to perform in many respects.

The tweets appear to be a rather transparent attempt to push a certain agenda IMO.

 

[Foppberg]

Too bad, I wanted him to work out. But misled? No. You just suck Miro. If you can't beat out David Warsofsky and Duncan Siemens, that's on you.

 

[Siludin]

Why was he in the AHL? I see he has played ten games in the NHL. What role was he expected to play with Colorado and in which way did he fail?

#Mironov to SovSport: There are many good/positive remarks about #NHL in Russia. The fact is that not everything is ideal or great in #NHL. I can name many "pluses" where #KHL is better than #NHL. #Avs
