Russia3 is now called Russian Hockey League.
And as I know, players 12-13 year old can't play this league.
Maybe some mistake:dunno:

Don't know about that, but maybe it's a Co-ed league- sponsored by Bauer "Pink" stick tape.

This is along the lines of Bottom 5 prospects yet to play an NHL game.

Speaking about Sergey Gorelov, I don't have much info on his, but as he was rated as a 3rd goalie on Russian Prospects 2004 NHL Entry Draft Preliminary Rankings, hence he has a talent at least...
As he played in Kazakhstan-thats good for him. And it shows that he can play on a good level.
I found some of his video, he has size and he is very flexible.
To my mind, he can play well in ECHL and up...

Hockey in Kazakhstan is not that bad as you think.
I can compare Kazakhstan league with ECHL/AHL. The level of the hockey in Kazakhstan is something between the ECHL and AHL.

For example, check this two teams. And have a look on the roster and players exp.

Well, the fact is that Kazakh league has those 2 good teams, farm teams of Barys and Kazzinc-Torpedo, the rest is low level so far even if they are improving fast.
