WJC: WJC Russian lineup?

[Alessandro Seren Rosso]

A new player has been called: http://www.russianhockeyfans.com/prospects/mikhail-fisenko-added-to-wjc-roster-74.html

 

[malkinfan]

Again, strange that they would call him before Nikontsev, Kuchin, or Avtsin, but we'll see... Maybe it's good to add some defensive responsibility.

Well, we have two real centers in the team, we needed a defensive one to fill in the third line.

Who's the projected starting goalie?

Ditto...


Is Bobkov the front runner?

 

[newellky]

Why isn't Kabonov playing?

pretty sure hes still injured

 

[Aaron Vickers]

pretty sure hes still injured

And he wasn't invited to play.

 

[olliho]

not impressed by the Team. Maybe Relegation Round possible, Fin and Cze are not bad and Sweden the best Team in this Group.

 

[Makaveli]

Just wanted to know where Orlov and Kugryshev will be playing?(top two lines/pairings?)

 

[TheLeastOfTheBunch]

What type of roles are Kuznetsov and Petrov expected to play?

I think Petrov will be on the second line, Kuznetsov - will play little, just an IMHO

 

[Em Ancien]

Where's Tarasenko slated to play? First line?

Kugryshev didnt make a team.

 

[third man in]

Kugryshev didnt make a team.

Link? Kugryshev will most likely be playing on the second line. Orlov will be on the top pairing.

Only six defensemen? There's something wrong! Usually, Russia keep 8 defensemen. Who's the 7th d-man? Anyone knows?

 

[Paxton Fettel]

hard to believe that in fact Kugryshev didn't make the team
