Player Discussion Kirill Kaprizov

[Nsjohnson]

I think CS 1.6 is why I don't play video games anymore. Nothing's the same.

Give him the C already, call up Spurg and apologize, it has to be done he's playing 1.6 I just know it

 

[Prior]

He looks it and plays like it but dude is put together.

 

[EazyE1]

anyone gotta link for those songs they were playing during the interviews etc? ive tried lookin it up but got nothing.

 

[a79krgm]

Two goals for Robertson today. Looks like he's pushing Kap for the Calder.

 

[Dakota Sioux]

Kaprizov registered his 35th point.
One more and he will tie Gáborík's rookie record.

I can't really call him hemi, or thrill the Krill. So for me it's just been Kap. And every time I hear it, say it or write, I hear the Avengers when they are talking to Captain America. They always call him Cap.

So we have our own Kap. Right now maybe it's just Kaptain Russia, but it be cooler if it was Captain Kaprizov.

Then we could call him Cap Kap

I don’t know why, but Kap reminds me of a young Lou Gramm of Foreigner. Guess that’s why he rocks - ha

midnight blue! hemi rocks

Hockey cards?

[123TripleDoge]

Are these real cards or the digital ones I keep hearing about??!

Real cards. Young guns are the staple rookie cards for most collectors. Upper Deck makes them. Boxes of 24 packs are selling for $170-$180, so around $7.00/pack. This is a low-mid range product. Crazy.

Which is weird. Didn't eBay kind of kill the market for a while?

I remember trying to finish the '92 Upper Deck set. The Yashin and Daigle cards were next to impossible to find. Took me forever. Seems like eBay and the internet kind of killed the 'rarity' aspect of things.

Do people even bother to complete sets anymore?

 

[chchelseII]

Some do sets. Some invest. Most gamble. I just collect Wild players I like. Usually rookie cards

Congrats to Kirill Kaprizov for tying Minnesota's rookie record points with 36. He has one less goal and one more assist than Gaborik.

He should be able to break the record that has been standing for two decades.

 

[Webster]

Yeah...but then they better keep him with the lizard

 

[Hjallis]

Kap will break records with or without lizards on his line. But it's cool to see team shaping into a more balanced unit this year.

And that lizard hasn't lost his old lizardry.

Boldy next.

I have a Ken Griffey Jr rookie card and a Clemens rookie card. There isn't a Wild card worth more that $5.

Stop with the Lizard. He has a stick 8 inches longer than it should be. Anybody else notice this? Call him the Wizard and 97 the baby Jesus.

Hell no. Normally I loathe the stupid nicknames that get tossed around. The lizard one is actually the first in a long ass time that I actually find hilarious.

Ive got a number of Wild cards worth more than $5.00

They have this ritual every time they win a game. The moose is always second last off the ice, and the lizard is last.
But first moose picks up lizard and gives him a real hug.

Teammates use these nicknames, and they're okay with it. No problem there, just fun.

The more I see Foligno and hear him speak about things, the more I'm bewildered that he wasn't given the 'C'. He should be the captain of this team.
