erkayloomeh Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Obviously none of you have been paying any attention. Obviously Tryamkin is better than all of them . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put Ovie on the second line with favourable matchups most his career and see who has more success... Ovie is the better player IMO. Brings such a physical factor too. I'd %100 take ovie over gino on any given team... the guy is 1 season removed from back to back to back 50 goal seasons Ovie on Crosby's wing? Give goalies nightmares Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bo will have more impact than Ovi? $10 million dollar Ovi? 3 time Hart trophy winner, 6 time Rocket Richard winner, 90 points in 97 playoff games Ovi? I understand being a homer but this is ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I checked Barry Trotz moved him to the 3rd line. We'll see who's more valuable once our team gets good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bo had 4 points in his first playoff year, Ovie had 9. Bo will be lucky to get to Linden's level. Ovie? keep dreaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GB5 Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 The title is "best Russian player in the game", not "best Russian player to have ever played the game". Therefore I say it obviously has to be Goldobin because he is the only Russian Canuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horvat vs Kesler maybe in a few years but Horvat is not in the same stratosphere as Ovi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet half the time when cbc is droning on about Crosby being the best player in the leage he isn't even the best player on his team. Malkin has outplayed him for a few big stretches of his career, and Ovi hasn't had anything close to an equal on his team ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stawns Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 Fetisov is the best Russian player to every play in the NHL, no question in my mind. Fedorov/Datsyuk a close second Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take the guy who can win win a big draw, block a shot, back-check and score. Ovi is a great scorer but he's too one-dimensional and gets shut down easily 5v5.

Some would argue that the Canucks have too many players that can block shots and back-check. The Canucks need a player that can score. Horvat has scored a total of 49 goals in 231 games with a plus minus of -45. Horvat still has a long ways to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
