who were Tarasenko and Kuznetsov's linemates in their final years?
internet says Tarasenko had the following teammates: Kovalchuk, Tikhonov, Thoresen, Prucha
Kuz's were: Andrei Kostitsyn, Jan Bulis, Stan Chitsov, and a lot of lesser known names.
so looks like Tarasenko had a far superior supporting cast. Potentially less ice time? But also might mean he was on the 1st PP unit with Kovy?
yeah, meanwhile I don't recognize a single name on Buch's team. Even a few former NHLers must be nice to have on your team. I'm hoping the lack of supporting cast and overall mediocre performance of his team really motivate him to come over. Can see him with Kreider & Stepan. those two could certainly use some help this season.
Tarasenko's only linemate of significance in his time with Sibir (which was most of his KHL career) was Lehtera. And for the first couple years he didn't even have Lehtera, he had nobodies, similar to Buch.
Getting very excited about Buch, I think his potential is massive.
