Obviously Gretzky was mesmerizing beyond any description. Man, who was ever more a pure adrenaline rush? Fluck he was fun to watch! But were in for such a treat with Elias Pettersson. He breaks ankles like Datsyuk, drops backhand dimes like Hank Sedin and still shoots as good as anyone not named Ovechkin. That said... Who is the closest to Pavel Bure, in todays game? Kucherov has the speed, and is pretty slick. Not quite the power? The Hughes brothers are also going to be sic! Maybe MacKinnon or Patrick Kane?? Patrick Kane. Hate to say it. These are just comparable players, not one player in the league is as dynamic as Bure. Before Bure, the other player that was as dynamic was also nicknamed the 'Rocket' too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Stierlitz Posted August 1, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 1, 2019 Podkolzin played for SKA in the club's first exhibition game of preseason vs Khimik, Voskresensk (VHL club) on July 28. Podkolzin (RW, 18 y.o.) played on the line with Ogirchuk (LW, 19 y.o.) and Jarno Koskiranta (C, 32 y.o.). SKA won 3-2, Podkolzin no points. The club also played another VHL club Tambov in the same day so the line combinations don't mean much. 2 3 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My goodness. He has all that skill and hockey smarts, and he’s mean too. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can easily see the puck, but he knows when someone is cutting in front and how to act accordingly. He won’t be the “head-down” type Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
