This is only including the guys who have started so far.

 

[stickty111]

Stole it from Rindell last minute.

Yeah noticed that too. Poor guy

 

[Morgs]

It's been a while since the Leafs have had this much representation at the WJC. Maybe the year Marner, Nylander and Matthews were there?

Matthews wasn't Leafs property yet and I think that was the year Nylander got hit in the head during the first game and missed the tournament.

Canada who? Can't decide if I'm gonna be a Finland, Russia, or America fan this year.

Would be very nice to see Abramov and Amirov paired on a line.

 

[Morgs]

Would be very nice to see Abramov and Amirov paired on a line.

I'd be pretty happy with the all-tournament team being:

Robertson-Abramov-Amirov
Kokkonen-Niemela
Ahktyamov

But I'd settle for Hirvonen over one of them.

[Byron Bitz]

With the other tools Hallander has, you are still looking at a 3rd line player even if the production doesn't catch up. He also can play a complementry role to a scoring line, much like how Hyman does. Hallander offensive skillset is above what Hyman's was at all though Hyman improved.

I’m hoping he can be like a Jay Mclement.

 

[hamzarocks]

A future third line of

Hirvonen-Hallinder Abramov would be pretty nice to have.

3 centers all capable playing together proving good offense and supporting the big 4 along with robertson+amirov

If he can't score he's not going to be a 3rd liner at the NHL level, that's to high in the lineup with to many minutes to not offer anything offensively

He's starting to concern me

Hyman still became a 3rd liner before despite little offense. He played a supporting role on a good line. No reason Hallander can't do the same.
There isn't anything to be concerned with Hallander. He is their best possession player and playing really well in a 1st line role. He'll be fine. Whats to be concerned about? I think your overracting a bit.

All offer something different to the line, but one thing in common is they are smart responsible players. A 3rd line like that would be nice in 2-3 years.

Can we compare the caliber of play in the MHL to any other league? Ovchinnikov is killing it in this league.

It's basically the Russian CHL

That's true. I was at those Bronze & Gold medal games.

[SeaOfBlue]

Not even remotely similar. The OHL is much more competitive than the MHL. I guess it is better than him sucking in the MHL though.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

there aren't many D+1 Russians who play in the MHL, but Chinakov is one. He had 1.2 points per game and was subsequently drafted in the first round, is performing at a high level in the KHL, and was great for Russia in the Karjala cup. Kirill Marchenko is another comparable who had 1.15 points per game, and has 17 points in 24 KHL games as a 20 year old. Marat Khusnutdinov is another one, who has 1.4 points per game. 1.6 points per game for Ovchnnikov definitely shows he has a path to be a real player in the future

The difference between all of those guys and Ovchinnikov is that they had significant exposure in international competitions. Ovchinnikov may have received it had it not been for Covid, but he did not play in those competitions all that much (even though he did pretty well when he did). I also imagine that Chinakhov does not get drafted in the 1st round without that KHL start either. His MHL numbers were good enough for him to maybe get drafted in the 4th round.

Bader's posts are based on NHLe, so he's just saying that Ovchinnikov is essentially having a statistically similar season when comparing the two leagues. I know you're not the biggest fan of DO, but it's obviously a good thing.

Yeah, it's definitely there. Every time I've watched him this season I've come away impressed as hell. Strong skater, strong shot, good passing, plays hard defensively and is obviously wrecking the league. I doubt he's really close to a Robby-level prospect, but for his NHLe to be that similar in his D+0 and for him to be [another] late birthday, I'm impressed.

I don't think international performance has much of a bearing on future potential. But you could make a good case that Ovchinnikov should have been invited to the WJC camp

I didn't realize that he is pretty tall. Just needs to fill out.

Comparison to Amirov.

Not that I have anything against NHLe, but I have found that there seems to be various shortcomings when using it in most European countries, either having a lot of guys who model extremely well but fail (and vice-versa, guys who maybe do not model the best but turn out, although that is less common) or finding that it is not as important as other factors (i.e. how well they do internationally or whether they are playing in the pro leagues at a young age).

I don't think international performance has much of a bearing on future potential. But you could make a good case that Ovchinnikov should have been invited to the WJC camp

It does for most European countries (Sweden is the main exception I would say). If you look at the Russians in the NHL right now, only Mikheyev did not have significant international exposure by the time he was 20. Most of them are even on the U18 squads, although Panarin and Gusev were not. Both went undrafted at least twice (Panarin was ultimately undrafted altogether), but Panarin likely should have been drafted since he had almost a 0.5 PPG in the KHL in his DY, which is a suitable alternative to international exposure.

All of the drafted Russian goalies were starters for their U18 teams, and the two undrafted ones (Bobrovsky and Georgiev) were starters for their U20 teams and were full time pro players by 20 as well.

Of course, I am referring to Russians who play in Russia. If they decide to come to the CHL in their DY, then I subject them to CHL production expectations and they do not need to play internationally (certain countries, such as Russia, have certain biases against Russians who left Russia to play in the CHL). Therefore, if guys like Abramov and SDA received less international playing time because they were in the CHL, that is not held against them as much as it would be a guy staying in Russia.

Ovchinnikov is eligible for the WJC next year as well I believe.
