WJC: Russia 2019 Roster Talk | Mod Note in OP

How is Romanov doing so far? Is he a lock?

 

[MaxV]

I wouldn’t call him a lock, but he should make it.

He is having a solid season, he is playing meaningful minutes on a loaded team. That’s not common in KHL.

 

[Atas2000]

Second pairing.

 

[Atas2000]

Which goalie do you guys think will start in the first game for Team Russia?

It might be Kochetkov after the CIBC Series, but the friendlies before the tournament might swing it still.

 

[Atas2000]

Everything is a slight against Russia for you eh? lol. Just quit it man, there's no conspiracy, there's no best development road for players (players are individuals). Seems like every time you can you blast the CHL or Canada or America. The injury was just unlucky.

It's YOU again seeing what YOU want to see. You are twisting my posts the way they fit YOUR imaginaton. I can't really help you.

[SI90]

Is Podkolzin not joining the team?

 

[FinPanda]

Is Podkolzin not joining the team?

I read somewhere on twitter that he is indeed joining the team.

 

[bagsw]

Is Podkolzin not joining the team?

He will join.
Молодежная сборная приступила к тренировкам в Канаде

 

[king89]

Is Kostin a topp 6 forward in this team? And is this team better or worse then last year?

Samorukov,Chekhovich-Khovanov-Shashkov

Khovanov probably not going to make it?

 

[devilsfan35]

Excited to see Podkolzin. Will he have a big role on the team or be the odd man out?

I have no idea what i'm reading. Such a mess.

 

[bagsw]

This lines are not sorted. I think that Khovanov has big chance and Shashkov will be replaced by Kostin in that line.
But everything can be changed after pre-tournament games.

 

[Statsy]

You would think someone named “The Crypto Guy” would be able to sort out that puzzle.

Let me decrypt it for you; the top line is the goalies. They should put up good offensive numbers playing on a line together! As for the rest, keep in mind the Russians play in five man units. The two guys on the left are the D, and the other three are the forwards.

Probably would have been a lot better if he wrote the lines out like a normal person.

 

[Statsy]

Probably would have been a lot better if he wrote the lines out like a normal person.

But the way lines are normally written out doesn’t connect the dmen and forwards at all. In this system they are a five man line.

 

[Habs Halifax]

Second pairing.

Is Romanov playing LD or RD?

 

[Atas2000]

Probably would have been a lot better if he wrote the lines out like a normal person.

Why do North Americans always assume their way is the norm somehow? To us the NA system isn't the norm and we reserve the right to write about our NT is the way that is normal to us, i.e. five man units.

Yes but even then it was extremely poorly written. You can't make heads or tails of it.

 

[Atas2000]

I can. Might be unusual to someone not from Russia, but we learn other peoples' habits to understand them too. Look, for example the clock ticking down and not up during games was completely unusual to us and you got confused all the time watching NHL games, but it's what's usual in NA. We have to learn it too.

 

[Zine]

I understand it's not what you're familiar with, but it's not difficult to understand for any knowledgeable hockey person who puts forth an effort into analyzing it.
3 players linked together = forwards! 2 players linked together = dmen!

 

[admiralcadillac]

I understand it's uncommon where you're from, but it's not difficult to understand for any knowledgeable hockey person who puts forth an effort into analyzing it.
3 players linked together = forwards! 2 players linked together = dmen!

It's not clearly separated, I think both of you are misunderstanding what I'm saying.

zzz (goalies)
xx, yyy (Line 1)
xx, yyy (Line 2)
xx, yyy (Line 3)
xx, yyy (Line 4)

Is not difficult to understand. His post was unclear because the spacing and differentiation between lines and pairs was unclear.

 

[Statsy]

Count me in with the Russians on this one (Insert Trump joke here). Even if you couldn’t puzzle out what that lineup meant, the fact that you didn’t know about the Russian five man units shows that there is a hole in your hockey knowledge.

The Green Unit must be turning over in their graves right now. Okay, maybe just Krutov. The rest are alive and well.

I'm fairly certain that no regional standard has inconsistent use of commas and hyphens from group to group. And most times lines are listed, there is proper formatting between groups.
