lol, you are singing the same tune all the time, I kinda agree.To the CHL usually.
As long as the same tune is true I will sing it, right until the time when it is not true.lol, you are singing the same tune all the time, I kinda agree.

Apart from Askarov, this Russian age group is deep, but, I'm not seeing any elite talents.
Nonetheless, say what you want about Golubovich, but his coaching was awesome this tourney. Team structure and commitment to defense won it for us.
it's only true in your head, the reality is much more difficult and complex, than you make it out to be.As long as the same tune is true I will sing it, right until the time when it is not true.
too many would/could/should, the result was the usual, and the wjc with many in the CHL is going to be even worse.For what its worth, I thought the Russian team in the Hlinka tournament this year was absolutely dominant. They literally dominated every team they played (the USA, twice). They lost to Sweden in the last minute on a purely lucky play (poor play by Askarov), but the Swedish team barely touched the puck until the 3rd period, when they generated a little bit of offense. I think they got tired of pouring the pressure on the Swedish team the first two periods with nothing to show for it. I would have loved to have seen them play Canada. I am certain they would have competed very well against Canada.
It is true on so many score sheets that you should be ashamed.it's only true in your head, the reality is much more difficult and complex, than you make it out to be.
Jury is still out on A. Svechnikov.
Jury still out? He is what, 18-and-a-half? Already calling the jury?

sorry I am not, because you are tailoring the data to match your opinion, that's just that.It is true on so many score sheets that you should be ashamed.
To be fair the last elite forward talent Russia produced was Kucherov? Jury is still out on A. Svechnikov.
That's what he's saying.Still a jury should be called in action say 4-5 years after the draft, hardly earlier
No one was calling Kucherov an elite talent when he was 17 or 18 years old. Kuznetsov not an elite talent? Tarasenko not an elite talent? Panarin not an elite talent? Who else are you ignoring here?
