At this point Askarov's drive and work ethic should start being questioned.
His physical tools are fantastic, but his technique is awful and he wilts under pressure. He personally plays to the media too much also.
And it's not like he's being coached by amateurs. Marko Torenius is a great coach, who also developed Shestyorkin and Koskinen.
It's like he still wants to rely on reflexes only.
