Not Too Soft
So- I took the liberty of speculatively adding the four additional Russians in a manner generally in accordance with your apparent prescriptions, and came up with something like this:I always said Fetisov should probably be around or slightly above Larry Robinson. Somewhere in the early 20's. Makarov just a hair beyond him. I'd also be interested in adding Tretiak in retrospect. Ball park, about 40-45. Maybe Kharlamov.
