LW Ivan Chekhovich - Lokomotiv Yaroslavl, KHL (2017, 212th, SJS released)

[Fantomas]

He is old enough where production is expected.

I was very impressed by his play in the AHL. So his success this season isn't too surprising.

 

[Atas2000]

He has to have a good second game in the CIBC series.

Unfortunately Chekhovich injured his back in training, so he is likely out of the WJC.

Oh man, one of the prospects I was looking forward to see the most this year.

 

[Zine]

From Chekhovich’s interview it sounds like he failed to inform the training staff he was dealing with reoccuring back problems; then proceeded to injure himself during weight training.

Idiot.

 

[PittsburghHustlers]

Officially ruled out. Was looking forward to see what he could do so that sucks.

 

[KILLger]

He is already playing in the Q?

 

[Tryamkin]

Chekhovich with a monster performance this morning. 7 points on two goals and five assists in an 11-3 win, beating his previous record of five points in a game easily.

Him not getting onto the Russian team was such a stupid move, especially since he's already healthy. That team needed a player like him.

Can you blame Bragin though? Chekhovich. himself, admitted he was awful in the WJC exhibition games because his back was hurting.

What was Bragin to do?, he was on a short timeline. Do you keep Chekhovich in *hopes* that he recovers? Or do you go with the player that's 100% healthy? And even if Chekhovich recovers he still needs to be worked into the lineup in terms of chemistry, etc.

I'm no fan of Bragin, but you can't have any loose ends in the WJC. I don't think he had much choice.

 

[Outofbodyinhungary]

Oh man 2+5 in one game. Those are be a pro like numbers from an nhl game. Crazy!

 

[Helistin]

Oh man 2+5 in one game. Those are be a pro like numbers from an nhl game. Crazy!

Not bad for a player who is so injured that he got shipped off from the Russian team. Something doesn't seem quite right here.

Nice zone entry and assist.

So far he has 101 points this season. What an absolute animal. There is little hype about him. Next year he will have a killer AHL season.

He had 9 points in the AHL last year in just 6 games. Depending on the Sharks off season, he may not be in the AHL long.

 

[DANOZ28]

i really wanted my wild to draft this player , hes looking great! it wont shock me if hes as good as debrincat.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Is he the next Abramov?

Idiot.

Sounds more like a person under pressure than an idiot.

 

[Atas2000]

Sounds more like a person under pressure than an idiot.

He's put himself under that pressure though. So... idiot.

Do not hide health issues from doctors and coaches. It is not helping anybody.
