Nik is definitely coming into his prime,  above average skating, probably the most mobile, heads up, and agile skater I have ever seen above 6’ 6” & 250 lbs..  The NHL ice surface will to his benefit immediately.  I believe this clip is him at home on the new “Hybrid” size, a size down from the normal KHL surface, and a foot or 2 bigger than the NHL size.

Sensing more confidence in his game, maturity will do that..  it will be exciting to get him back to Vancouver.

Really impressive how agile he is for someone his size.

It's true.

 

He is not currently under contract with the Canucks, so that makes him a former Canuck.

So until Brock signed, in your mind BB was a former Canuck because his contract had expired? And Pod and Hog are not Canucks because they haven't yet signed contracts with the team? Yeah, no. As long as the Canucks own their rights, they are Canucks.

Avto was the only undefeated team in the KHL until the last game vs Spartak, Moscow when the former lost 2-4. Avto is still on the 1st place in the Eastern Conference with 16 points in 9 games. Tryamkin played 18:15 with 2-min penalty for high stick and -1.

If they continue to play well, we might not see the big guy until next season (which could be a good thing). Hopefully he gets a championship under his belt and he will feel more accomplished and ready for a new challenge.

 

Just curious, do you know if he has a regular D partner with Avto? Just wondering if he's generally set to playing one side or the other and who they partner him with (more offensive type guys, etc).

Although to see him rotate in or fill in for injuries for our playoffs would be fun to watch.

The good thing that comes from Niks leave from the Canucks , is that he is ineligible for the Seattle extortion draft.

Most games Tryamkin is partnered with defensive defenceman Maxim Berezin (29 y.o., 6'3", 215) who plays on left side.

Why is that? Doesn't he have the required amount of professional games?

I believe you are mistaken about the ED. Pretty sure that Tram is eligible.
