Vasily Podkolzin | #92 | RW


Recommended Posts

Podkolzin's play since the WJC has been very, very encouraging. I figured his minutes would increase as the year went on, but I expected him to earn the coaches trust defensively and be used in a defensive role. Instead, he has shown some offensive ability and proven that he can be effective at both ends of the ice. I wasn't expecting any real offence until next season, so this is definitely welcome. 

 

At this rate he definitely looks like he could step right on to a line with Horvat at the end of next season.

Why so quiet on the Podkolzin front? Bit of a break before the playoffs starts?

You think Podz might actually be here for our playoff run?  That would be totally amazing!  Kids a beauty, and would instantly make our top nine way better.  I’d say we become ligit cup contenders getting Podz here.  Boy!  I sure hope you’re right!  :towel:

I think the fact that he is under contract with his KHL team for one more year would exclude him from playing for us this season.  I don't think the KHL has a transfer agreement with the NHL.  Next year it may work if his season is over.

And replace Loui as part of the empty net squad. 18 and he's playing in the last minute of games.

That's a great name for that line! 

 

Kidding aside, Bo has been driving that line the last few games and it's been very effective.
