Keenan:
Although some rinks are NHL sized, the majority are international size, 15 feet wider. "It's definitely a four-line game over here," Keenan said. "You can't exist on three lines."

If this is the case, why the hell is Nazarov playing only 3 lines? I understand the Varlamov/Morozov/Toryanik line ain't exactly great, but they are only getting 5-6 shifts and 3-4 minutes of ice time a game whereas all other forwards get 20+ shifts and 16-20+ minutes

rolling 3 lines has GOT to catch up with this team, what do you guys think?

nazarov
there are some domestic incidents there have been in almost every team. Athletes - ambitious people, their blood boils. However, we are in the Donbass not see this as an excuse

Anisin looks crazy. It's no wonder he was released by the team and has bounced around so much. Hopefully Varlamov is all right.

During medical examinations in Ufa hospital after being in collision state of shock, I behaved absolutely inappropriately. Even considering all the injuries, including a possible concussion, I, as a professional athlete, was not entitled to such behavior. - Anisin

so looks like Varly got a concussion and Anisin as well. I'm still confused, did they fight the bodyguards at the club, or did they fight eachother at the club - fight the bodyguards who tried to break it up, or did they fight eachother at the hospital?

either way this is some greasy horror show Trailer Park Boys ****

Donbass lost 1-4 in the last match against the Admiral. Tired Leighton errors defenders exceeded all acceptable norms. Today in Novosibirsk match hopefully will Nazarov Leighton rest.

Laco played and got a shutout

honestly, they are running Leighton a bit rough, on a road trip through siberia you'd think they would try to lighten the load

One of my favourite players in the K, Donbass offense is going to rock when he gets back. Hope he can rekindle the chemistry he showed with Robataille at the end of last season.

just realized that Donbass has the lowest goals-against in the league, and that's with 38 games played (most teams are at 36 or 37)

Down with Yanukovych, Leighton for president
