Sounds like you need to see a doctor.

Really thinking that Semin jersey I ordered while it was still 1/2 price was a good move. Absolutely love this guy already, so much fun to watch.

I picked one up myself
Semin has by far the best wrist shot in the NHL.

IMO, he is the most naturally talented player in the game
I almost kinda wish JR would go ahead and sign an extension before he goes nuts, puts up 60pts and demands (and will get from someone) $7m+ on a long term deal.

He's easily the best player on the team and I'm not trolling

I can see why he bugs people, but his talent is undeniable. This whole team can seriously look like it doesn't give a damn when they're playing poorly. Guys like E. Staal, Pitkanen, Semin, Corvo, Tlusty, Jokinen can seriously look like they're not even trying when they're not playing well. So in that respect, he fits right in.
On a more serious note, we added an elite player to each of our top two lines. It makes sense that it will take some time to develop some chemistry there and the non-existent pre-season didn't help us any. E. Staal and Semin look like they'll be OK once they stop trying to set each other up constantly (E. Staal seems to have gotten over that last night), and J. Staal/Skinner look better every day. The third wheels (Tlusty with E.Staal/Semin) and Dalpe (with J.Staal/Skinner) seem to be good fits, too.
Offensively, the Canes are looking good. Which is good, because they're going to give up around four a night.

My two biggest concerns with Semin:
1) Uses this season as a showcase for an absurd contract demand
1A) Is the exact opposite player in 2 months and we all want him gone. Re-signed to an absurd contract
