Hey everyone. I wanted to know honest opinions of some non leaf fans about one of our brightest prospects Nikolai Kulemin. He's 21 and is playing in the RSL... in the previous season, he scored more goals and got more points than Ovechkin did when he was in the RSL (and he did it in less games); his stats were also very very close to Malkins.
He said he's going to honor his contract which has 1 more year left with his team in Russia and then will play for the Leafs. If he didnt sign that 1 year contract, there is no doubt he would be on the big club thing coming season; he's physically and mentally ready to play in the bigs.
Here are 2 clips of Kulemin... note they are both pretty similar.
Also note that power foward move he does a lot and his extra gear on defensemen

What do you all think his potential is? Who does he remind you of?
EDIT: forgot to mention, he also played on the top line with Ovehckin a couple years ago.
