All of a sudden when Burmistrov takes part in the "Russian factor", pre-conceived notions of bad work ethic and locker room cancer arise and applies to all Russians. Coincidence? Maybe.
If you watched the same Semin that I did last year, you'd realize that his contract isn't really a problem considering that he's exactly what this team's been missing. Tlusty's an awesome compliment to that line, but you no longer hear complaints about finding Eric Staal a winger. Semin's everything you want offensively while playing smart not but spectacular defense. The only slowing down that's coming from Semin is the game when the puck is on his stick.
The "Russian factor" is very real but doesn't apply to some. Hearing this nonsense come from our board about our Russian superstar is bothersome, especially when browsing the Khudobin thread.
