[cska78]

tough game for CSKA, Salavat scores two relatively soft goals, yet doesn't capitalize on few 100% chances. I take the wins any way they come though.

 

[cska78]

Greta job, Amur

 

[jaco]

Greta job, Amur

An OT loss is more than what I dreamed of.... Actually I'd have gladly accepted a loss with not more than 3 goals...

 

[roki977]

3:0 for Medvecak in 1st..

 

[penepi]

Medveščak is on fire; awesome.

 

[roki977]

Offense is great today. Nice to watch..

 

[cska78]

got to be hard playing all these NA players on small ice...but good for Zagreb!

 

[FreshFruit]

3rd tier Canadians and Americans thrashing every Russian team that comes to the small ice.

This is the 10th home game for Medvescak in Dom Sportova and no Russian team can adjust to small ice playstyle? Where's that famous skill and quick hands? Did they even study Medvescak's games?

Yes I'm kinda biassed, I really thought that AHL team can't bounce with Russians even on small ice. They sure proved me wrong...

i would say a team of AHL all-stars

 

[roki977]

KHL all stars on budget...

Medvescak will be good even on "normal" ice with this play. Its not only small rink..

4:0

5:0

 

[SledgeHammer]

I don't think they are AHL All stars, as the best players go to NHL
Most of them are simply good, solid AHL players.

 

[FreshFruit]

I can't say are they or not AHL All star 'cause I don't follow the AHL but I can recognize that they would be one of the contenders.
In the NHL this team would be happy to have 5 wins through whole season and I'm not even biased on that. I'm biased on fact that on the small ice, although they tend to be overshooted they are playing much better hockey than any Russian team.

Heck, SKA without Kovalchuck would be happy to score even one goal in Zagreb. Barys was outplayed and crushed 'till the last 5 minutes. Won't talk about Avtomibilist...

Only Avangard was putting a good fight 'till the first half, then they fell apart when they received first.

It's 10th game in Zagreb and russians are making same mistakes over and over. It's joke to watch same telegraphed passes through the half ice and defence that can't produce one hit over nad over again and wont talk about trying to outscate NA on the boards... Do these teams have coaches?

On the big ice Medvescak played 4 games. I watched all 4 and I can say that they were equal if not better in 2 of them (Atlant and Loko). They had no luck with SKA and were thrased in Cherepovets.

That shoud have been warning for russians. But it seems that they don't take it seriously.

Edit. 6:0 for Medvescak

yeah, and some of them have 100 + games in the nhl.

NHL all-stars go to the nhl? how about names like Whitefield, Haydar etc...

This team wins Calder Cup most likely.

 

[cska78]

Neftekhimik has no clue how to play on small ice, they look like it's the first time ever.

 

[roki977]

Ofc. he is. They been destroyed.

6:0

13:0 is last 3 so far..

Barry is animal..

 

[FreshFruit]

Maybe 3th consecutive shutot for Barry Brust.

 

[Peter25]

Medvescak is good for the KHL because it forces these weaker Russian teams to learn how to play against NA competition in smaller ice.

i agree. ahl is development league with lot of young players, and team full of veterans would be a favourite for the calder cup.

 

[FreshFruit]

Those small teams will profit a lot more from small size rink(finnish size) then from one game vs Medvescak in season, as will all of KHL.

yes, neft' has no clue how to play, lol

 

[FreshFruit]

For KHL to challenge the NHL 5 foreigners rule must be gone. Period.
Russia has no talent to load up each club with 20 Russians and hoping that for 15 years they will be good enough to battle for points vs some NHL team.

As it's written here, KHL needs to decide whether it wants to be glorified russian superleague or it wants to be a true rival to the NHL.

As it's written here, KHL needs to decide whether it wants to be glorified russian superleague or it wants to be a true rival to the NHL.

This rule must not be completely abandoned. Russian teams have to be "encouraged" to invest into their junior programs and the best way to do that is to prevent Russian teams from filling their rosters with foreign players.

But there are too many weak players in the KHL who should not play in this league. This is especially true this year with two expansion teams and lots of injuries in many different teams. That is why the foreign limit should be raised to at least seven foreigners for each Russian team.
