RW/LW Vasili Podkolzin - SKA St.Petersburg, KHL (2019, 10th, VAN) Part 2

[Canucks LB]

Wait so you are telling me that when a player gets more playing time his chances of getting more points increase?

 

[Artorius Horus T]

He is getting points, but...his line mates are getting more points what he is, what's that all about.

I don't get you. Are you some sort of wannabe scout?

I don't get you. Are you some sort of wannabe scout?

Or...was that just a legit, honest question?. (that i was just wondering)

Lmao you just can’t help yourself, can you?

His linemates are both full year ahead in development – Marchenko and Morozov played very minimally last year in KHL (18yo D+1 seasons) and didn't produce any points. What Podkolzin is doing is special for 18 year old on SKA. He is the engine that drives the line. Please watch games and forget the stats.

Sick play

Igor Larionov says Podkolzin reminds him of Mark Messier. Big, skilled, smart, leader, and mean. Canucks look to have stolen the best player in his draft class three years in a row.

do you have a link to Larionov's quotes or interview? not that i dont believe you, i just genuinely want to read it

Podz confirmed bust because he cant get unassisted goals

 

[McNurse]

He just looks at box scores then acts like he knows it all lol

 

[FreeMcdavid]

How'd they do at 18 tho

18 yr old season

Morozov 11gp - 0pts
Marchenko- 1 gp -0pts

Spent most of the year in VHL/MHL

SKA St Petersburg didnt even think these guys were good enough to be playing in KHL.

Meanwhile, Podkolzin is in his 21st game with SKA ST Petersburg this season.

 

[Raistlin]

He just looks at box scores then acts like he knows it all lol

he just has a very unhealthy relationship with boxscores lol.... 80% of his posts are about it.

It's about him being a 18y.0.

I think he was comparing more their playing style/individual attributes than ability/impact. That said, it's very high praise from a very intelligent hockey guy.

 

[FreeMcdavid]

NVM i found it.

Former Canuck Igor Larionov describes Vasili Podkolzin as “a young Mark Messier”

 

[FreeMcdavid]

Yep Larionov says he see's Messier in the way Podz plays.

I told him a couple days ago, he reminds me of a young Mark Messier,” said Larionov. “The way he’s physical, he’s mean, and he’s winning all the battles all over the ice.”

Whoa there Luckylarry, this is a spicy hot take.

 

[sansabri]

no points?? back to being a bust

 

[Peter25]

no points?? back to being a bust

Marchenko-Morozov-Podkolzin was still the best line for SKA against Avangard today.

 

[FreeMcdavid]

no points?? back to being a bust

that was a very playoff like tight checking game. 1-0 OT win for SKA. Pods and the u20 line were still very very good though

I read somewhere that Pods is considered one of the strongest players on the SKA team already as an 18yr old. This guy has Drago strength. Hopefully he isnt juicing like Drago!

So he's going to destroy the Canucks from the inside?
