Wow that was unexpected

 

[Ed Ned and Leddy]

Easily the best Kirill playing hockey

In seriousness, cool to see! I think we'll see a lot of youth in Grand Rapids next year.

 

[ChadS]

Very cool. Need a lot of patience though, I don't think this will be an easy transition for him both on and off the ice.

 

[MBH]

Love it. This kid knows his way around a powerplay.

 

[Larkin2AA]

Something you love to see, your 7th round pick making it to your AHL team. Awesome news!

 

[Killerjas]

This is a long term project. Small but skilled guy. Needs to gain some weight.

Hope he performs!

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

Not even on an NHL deal, interesting prove it choice by him. I hope he transitions to NA well, excited to see him.

 

[lilidk]

Best use of him is playing him with power forward. Tyutyaev like to play behind the net , setting up partners. I'd put him with Smith

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Is it wrong to hope he cracks the Wings lineup so I can hear Murph say his name?

Wings are going to have to sign him for that to happen.

 

[Voodoo Glow Skulls]

Very cool. Need a lot of patience though, I don't think this will be an easy transition for him both on and off the ice.

I would hope they give him a care package.

Translator/Cultural coach.
Player to live with from the team.
Financial advisor.

IMO, that would help.

He's gonna be making roughly $70k in GR even if he signs with the Wings. They'll just tell him not to blow it all at the nudie clubs.

Plus he's not a superstar or anything.

Woah this came out if nowhere

Yzerman is just so damn smart. Not wasting NHL contract spot for him, but offers an AHL deal.

Tyutyayev is outside of the NHL contract limits, but think the player will get more money with an AHL deal, than with NHL ELC deal.

I'm quite sure there's more money involved, because he would have got bigger KHL offers, than NHL ELC, but giving a bit more with an AHL deal, we got this guy to North America.

This is all Steve Yzerman, stretching the NHL CBA.

 

[DetroitRed]

I know he looked like he would quickly do very well very in VHL, and also looked like he could play in an adult league in Belarus, but I'm still looking at him listed at under 150 pounds. So if that's still true, this is going to be a steep climb for him. I mean if you can gain 15-20 pounds of muscle, you still end up under 170, if you're him.

The numbers on Elite Prospects are not up to date, I think he was 178 cm & 77 kg already in 2019-2020 so about 5'10/170.

Yep.

Everybody should know this.

Some old highlights.

That makes more sense!

 

[lilidk]

178/77 wich is 5'8" 170 pounds

 

[Henkka]

178/77 wich is 5'8" 170 pounds

No.

It's 5'10 and 170 pounds.

This is the (Tampa Bay) way.

He wouldn't be getting a bigger offer in the KHL than a NHL ELC. They have like a 12 million dollar cap and he isn't anything special.

 

[Retire91]

Pretty big commitment showed by him to come to AHL.. Seems like he has personal sights on making an impact in the NHL really hope it works out for him. Welcome aboard!
