RW Nikolai Kovalenko (2018, 171st, COL)
- Thread starter Kshahdoo
- Start date
Every team is dressing 1999s except for Modo and Trinec.
But, yeah, Loko is dressing some junior players who likely wont play too much in the MHL this year (Denisenko, Kovalenko, Slepets, Anokhovsky.)
I dont know if this applies to other teams as well.

It'll only be an issue if he ends up a pure bottom-6er in the NHL rather than a middle-6er who gets some time 3rd-wheeling on a scoring line, or even a legit top-6er. If that's where his development peaks then him staying in the KHL or returning-quickly, rather than grinding out a middling career in NA, would be more of a concern.
But if he develops well and deserves better opportunities than that, he'll come over sooner or later.

Their team is not looking good under McTavish though... First candidate for the first coach firing this season.

He's too old. Otherwise he would be a lock and one of the most important players for them but he was born a month or two early.
I forgot that he aged out. For some reason I thought he was a year younger.

He'll come over. He said he wants to follow his dad's path.

Since the draft he has not dissapointed. Great pickup for Colorado at draft day, great prospect to have now. Pedigree is sometimes a great thing. He and Romanov seem to pick up all the right things from dad and granddad respectively.

The cumulative 0.45ppg isn't bad - 28th for U21 seasons in KHL last decade (10+ gms).
More interesting if you look at his splits... He started with 5pts in 23gms so that's 12pts in his last 15gms (or 0.8ppg)... A 0.8ppg for the full season would be 7th on that U21 list alongside some good company.
