None different than that of any other established Euro pro. Kontiola, Kemppainen, Haapala...
Didn't see Haapala blaming his team or saying he won't be back.

Honestly, I didn't go back and read that. Yeah, you're certainly right about that.Didn't see Haapala blaming his team or saying he won't be back.
Working in an US based company that's the worst. I've come to terms with many things, but this need to cheer on people when you think poor of them is downright puzzling. Every time I hear someone say "You rock" or some other BS like that, fully knowing it means nothing, makes me want to barf. If someone's not doing his job tell him that. Don't say one thing to his face, and then talk bad about him to someone else.Getting back to his interview, I have an impression that Avs management had a bit of miscommunication with Mironov in the way that sometimes it is bad to be too polite with Russian players, they prefer more straightforward approach. I mean, when you tell Russian player that he is doing good, often the expectation from a player is that a top4 position (ok, i'm exhaggerating here) is waiting for him just like in two weeks or so. I have a feeling that some constructive criticism might have been missed here.

Constructive criticism is the best thing you can get. If someone cares for you as a person he will tell you when you can do something better, he will not cheer you on while you're digging your own grave.But constructive criticism is mean
Plus it makes me sad.
No, that’s mean. You cheer them on as they dig their own grave because that’s what they want to do!Constructive criticism is the best thing you can get.

I hope I can be as snide n pithy as bubba when I grow up
I'm sure he expected more NHL time and I'm sure Avs expected more NHL caliber hockey.
Better for both parties this way.
We should have left him in russia until he was nhl caliber. With these russian players, u should only bring them over when they dominate their league. I hope we didnt completely end this on bad terms.
They are rehabbing an injury and have been on the roster, they weren't brought up. Boikov in particular has no shot to play. Just to clear that up.I also wonder if something like this enters into the thought process at all (even at a minuscule level) to bring Kamenev up and keep him up with the Avs rather than being around that situation. They also brought Boikov up at the same time. It probably mattered little, but I find it somewhat interesting.
Sums up my thoughts as well. We can go into a situation like this and not bash the player like hockey fans always do. Organizations don't show loyalty to players, so why should players do the same to organizations? I get it that owners are in reality the bosses and control the situation, but employees can have voices too and Mironov decided to choose his.I'm sure he expected more NHL time and I'm sure Avs expected more NHL caliber hockey.

That's why we gotta keep Yakupov, he is a central factor for the Avs communication and marketing campaign back to the Motherland. He's our Russian ambassador to the Colorado Avalanche.Hope this doesn't affect Shyvrov in any way coming over.

It’s the organization’s infamous prospect ADD. When the Avs give up on a prospect, they give up on a prospect completelyI feel like the Avs are still having issues with their developmental programs, especially with oversea players. If he isn't getting constructive feedback, how exactly is he suppose to develop in the AHL? IIRC Everberg said he got basically zero guidance in the AHL because he wasn't one of Avs priority prospects.
