I understood the sport well enough to not bet against Jordan Binnington in the 4 Nations.
Nobody bet against him though.

Is that you got for real?

Having someone get under your skin so much you report them to the mods and then brag about it….such a loser
Accusing someone of making fun of homosexuals yet is arrogant to admit that his own profile name is offensive……thinly disguising a profile name that is obviously stating “The OG Race”….guy is scum in my book.
Tracking when someone posts and failing to remember that princess made 70+ posts in one day herself.
Tracking almost every post that TBone makes and responding to him is like shooting fish in a barrel.
TBone has less than 1,000 posts since April of 2024……Princess has made over 4,000 during that same period.

TBone has broken yet another person on this board.
But, in all seriousness…..didn’t the board feel Princess has been broken on here for years?….
There's no doubt he's broken. It took him a full FOUR minutes to reply to you.

This place is his life, sad as it is. I almost feel bad for him. But having him on dance my strings is too much fun!

Back to the thread. Korotky getting 30 games as an 18/19 year old in the KHL is a big step forward for the kid, and hopefully shows promise. Vorobyov nailed down a full season, but he's a little longer in the tooth. If he comes to the AHL after his contract, then we'll know he's in consideration for NHL time.

That's all I can say on these two kids...
I'm holding on to some hope for Korotky. Do feel like there could be something there. The others...shrug.

That’s how I see it too. As long as we’re talking the forwards anyway. We may actually have something in Korotky but I don’t see much in either Susuyev or Vorobyov.

But Koromyslov may be the best of the bunch. He won’t produce a lot of offense but I see real defensive ability with him. He has 1 year left on his KHL contract so hoping he comes over to N.A. next season.

Yea, Koromyslov had a huge year in the KHL as getting traded off of Petersburg was THE turning point for his development. Ending up on a contender and getting a big role (one win away from winning it all) really opened my eyes (and a lot of others). It's a shame I was stuck in Korea for the prospect camp.

What prospect camp was in Korea??

And yeah, him getting traded was good for him. Gave him a defining role that hopefully extends into this season.

Fun fact: Koromyslov is now the first and only d-man in KHL history to score a goal for 3 different teams in the same season.

I'll gladly take 100 of your threads over 1 post from the banned guy.

After all you know T...it's really all about......

I mean it honestly quite sad. People post and seconds later he replies; morning, noon or night.

A tragic clown living out his life chained to a forum hundreds of miles from where he lives. :oops:

Reading his (Korotky) stat chart it appears he had a hard go of it in KHL to start then came back stronger to finish the year in the MHL.

Anything to take from that?

Not very accurate. Not even the timeline.

He started off the season in the MHL, did very well. Then was promoted to the VHL (their top minor league) for 2 games before quickly being promoted to the KHL for the 2nd half of the season. As a teenager on the KHL’s richest and veteran heavy team, he didn’t get a lot of ice time. 9 pts in 30 games isn’t “a hard go of it” for a teenager at all. The fact SKA even played him in that many games that young is a very good thing in and of itself. Most of his points came in the last 10-15 games as he got a bit more ice time.

Once SKA was eliminated from the playoffs, they sent him back to their MHL team to play in the Jr playoffs. His team made it all the way to Game 7 of the championship series which unfortunately they lost. He was by far the best player on his team. Pretty sure he led the MHL playoffs in scoring or maybe was 2nd. I think he missed the first few games of the first series because he was still with the KHL team then.

Thanks for the updates there. I'm not into this like some of you and I was just trying to interpret and inquire about what I thought I was following on basic stat sheets.

So to go further...what is MHL versus the more well know KHL? Is this similar to AHL versus the Q or OHL?

I remember when you first started singing his praises and pumping his potential awhile back, and I started readin up on him and hoping we see him on the Blues someday, especially since he has awesome size and the coveted mean streak I love in Dmen.
