justin135 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 He had a terrible 2nd half of the season and playoffs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kassian Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Since when was 10 points in 11 games TERRIBLE while playing with an ankle injury and mono. Christ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langdon Algur Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Nonsense, Grigorenko was born in Russia, and has played hockey in Russia since he was a child. Grigo is not from a South American or African 3rd world country where birth records could be changed or manipulated for a few dollars. I think Grigo might end up being the best player out of this draft. If this kid slips MG should trade up to snatch him up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex the Great Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 I feel bad for the kid. He's clearly given the Russian treatment here and has all year. If he was Canadian, he would be praised and you wonder why Russians bolt to the KHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboose Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Welcome to North American hockey, where if you're Russian then you're a commie, and if you're Canadian you can do no wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avelanch Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 honestly, i hope everyone thinks he's crap and a quitter, and really older than he is and he somehow drops to us. it would be phenomenal if we somehow picked him up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stawns Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Exactly, you're basing it off stats. Did you see him play in the series vs. Halifax? Didn't think so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avelanch Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 If Grigorenko drops to 5th and Brian Burke has the sheer audacity to NOT pick him up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drive-By Body Pierce Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 He can also dominate with his agility, acceleration and speed. I had personally hoped that the Canucks traded up in the draft to get this guy, but it doesn't seem realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck Surfer Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 And Dikembe Mutumbo still looks younger than all of them... Apparently this is why he's slipping in all the pre-draft rankings. It's certainly interesting. Was this rumour started by a team hoping to have him fall to them? This reminds me of the Fausto Carmona story, a pitcher for Cleveland. He obtained a false identity in order to get a visa so he could travel to the states, but he is actually older than his false identity says. http://espn.go.com/m...-false-identity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I♥Wellwood Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Whoever drafts him probably started this rumour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
