[Nico the Draft Riser]

Svechnikov easily, add Popugayev

 

[MaxV]

This one will be over quickly.

Shvyryov is next to add for me. I’m also a fan of Iskhakov.

 

[Elias Pettersson]

Why even vote for #1? Just go to #2

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Kirill Maksimov is a dual citizen that can play for Russia internationally, are you counting him? He’s a worthy inclusion that’s better than a few of these guys.

Anywho, Svech by a mile.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Don't disagree that its Svechnikov, but I'm voting for Shestyorkin.

Add Dronov.

 

[TheFountainhead]

Future Vezina finalist Ilya Samsonov.

I remember last year I kept bugging you to add Kravtsov. You waited til later on to add him Idkw

Well, kind of just to make an introduction poll... but yeah, probably I won't wait the required time for this poll to close and will post the poll #2 rather soon.

Kirill Maksimov is a dual citizen that can play for Russia internationally, are you counting him? He’s a worthy inclusion that’s better than a few of these guys.

Anywho, Svech by a mile.

Maksimov is not only eligible to represent Russia, but he already did that in an official IIHF event - U18 WJC in 2017, so obviously he is eligible for this poll too.

I remember last year I kept bugging you to add Kravtsov. You waited til later on to add him Idkw

Probably because not a lot of people were suggesting to add him.

Since the addition stuff has been brought up, I will probably need to clarify how I plan it to be this year: this time I will keep my tiebreaking vote, but won't be voting to add anyone myself (like it was last year) to minimize my influence. So, for example, currently we have 4 players with one vote each and if it will finish that way, I will use my tiebreaking vote to decide on who to add.

 

[MaxV]

Since last year we included guys like Andrei Svechnikov and Khovanov, I’m assuming that the 2019 guys are eligible. 2020 also?

 

[RememberTheName]

Svechnikov add Maltsev

 

[VoluntaryDom]

Svechnikov, add Gusev if you count him as a prospect

 

[Boud]

Svechnikov, add Gusev if you count him as a prospect

Yeah, I think there's nothing wrong to include those guys, but i kind of doubt that will have an impact on the poll anyway.

 

[VoluntaryDom]

If Gusev doesn’t count add Knyazev
