This is great to see. I was legitimately worried about Igor’s willingness to come over if weren’t guaranteed a spot.New York Rangers: Igor Shestyorkin denies demanding to play only in NHL
Shesterkin calls it an outright lie that he's demanding not to go to Hartford. Very humble kid. Good head.
When Brodeur started the 1993-94 season, he decided against NJ on his helmet because he wasn't sure he'll play in NJ and not Albany. He was a double OT Game 7 goal away from leading the Devils to the Cup Final where NJ would've been a heavy favorite against Vancouver.
Lundqvist also said he wasn't sure he can make the NHL when he first came over. You get somewhere by being good, not by making demands.

Игорь Шестеркин: "Как я могу требовать от "Рейнджерс" играть только в НХЛ? Все это чушь"
I have the same question about this post.
Already improving his English. A few months ago he would be using his interpreter for everything, now he is understanding and responding much better (still using one for a few questions since the reporters forget these kids are still learning the language and ask complex questions super fast).

His English didn't improve. He is just more comfortable now. This same debate every freaking time. It happened with Kakko as well. They don't just magically learn English in 3 months. Using an interepreter is very common in baseball, for players who lived and played in NA for years.
Shestyorkin spoke English 2 years ago and did interviews in English for Finnish television.
Do you really need to start arguments over everything no matter how petty?His English didn't improve. He is just more comfortable now. This same debate every freaking time.
