[Kshahdoo]

Vladislav Syomin

Leads WJC in scoring with 2+2 in 2 games. Has a nice frame with 6'3, 207 lbs. Not sure, any team will draft him as a doubleager, considering he's in a SKA system.

Noticed him first at the Sochi tournament in May, he stood out with his physicality. Likes to hit, although some of his hits are borderline or even dirty, which results in some penalty minutes. As a really big kid (6'3" and 214 lbs I believe is the last updated measurement) he isn't extremely mobile, but definitely doesn't look like a pylon to me. Has a strong shot, so I'm not highly surprised by his goals, although I had expected him to use his mighty slapper.

Sounds similar to Emelin. Only bigger and more offensive.

How is his hockey IQ? I understand that he takes dumb penalties sometimes but aside from that, does he think the game well?

I think Emelin's playing style is different, to me the comparison here would be Tryamkin scaled down to a size of a human.

Well, those penalties are not exactly dumb, I think those are from a not refined yet physical game. Overall it's hard to tell, I think he is making progress, which at least means he is coachable. Also so far I liked his positioning.

Tryamkin is a pylon though, so it's pretty sad if thats what he is.

Lol, Tryamkin is the better skater, than anybody of his size, including future hall-of-famer Chara.

Yes, I'm aware, he's just a really big pylon anyway.

Hmm good to hear. Everything I've heard about this kid sounds good and he has the numbers to back it up. Does it look like he holds NHL capabilities in his future?

Really hard to tell at this point, if his development goes well, I'd say there is a good chance, but again, at this point we are talking more about rather raw tools, toolbox is still in progress.

Debuted in the KHL.

Scored a GWG that gets Ska-Neva into VHL finals:

Interesting that Syomin is currently playing both in MHL and VHL finals, quite a rare case I think.

 

[Caser]

Went undrafted again, so much for being praised for his physicality and 'finishing his checks'.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

He's played two games for SKA so far this season. Both games he only got about five minutes, but for a young defensemen at SKA just getting into the rotation is impressive.

I think he'll be drafted in the next draft.
