They should help each other get rolling in a new environment. Someday this NT fascination will fade away. It's just not gonna happen. 18 hours ago, Nuxfanabroad said: JB stated an emphasis on character in prospects. Yrs back(mostly that OTHER site) saw him get heckled for this. It's soooo nice now of all these young stars, you get the sense they'll all fit/gel cohesively. There don't seem to be any types with undermining egos & bad attitudes. This is gold. Hard to put a price on locker room mentality and team dynamic. 18 hours ago, Nuxfanabroad said: Importantly, when they all age into bigger contracts, I bet they'll be able to financially fit more stars than many other rivals can manage. Another winner. If your superstars settle for 6,7,8 or so then you can squeeze one or two more in and balance the payroll out somewhat also keeping the group perhaps more "financially balanced"??

(Well, don’t really miss those days at all, as far as the politics and the way people suffered under certain regimes. Just to be clear.) But it sure was exciting when there was more “cloak and dagger” around getting guys over here. And there’d actually be a chance of Pod “missing his plane” back in those days. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Podkolzin has relatively played well so far against Canada. Weak defense for team Russia leads to 2 quick goals for Canada. Podkolzin takes a double minor though largely unintentionally as Podkolzin's stick rides up Byram's stick to catch him in the face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outsiders Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 (edited) Canada's D just tried to step up at the line to hit Pod's and he decked the guy. Think it was Harley maybe? whoever it was Pod's levelled him. Edited January 4, 2021 by Outsiders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locke Lamora Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 (edited) Podz is doing what he can, but Russia just got blitzed that period. This Russian goalie could benefit from some Ian Clark tutelage. Yikes. I hope Russia, led by their captain, can make a game of it in the 2nd stanza.

Millsy Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 (edited) Podz got player of the game for Russia, even in the 5-0 loss. I guess the “only if he scores points is he not a bust” crew will be upset. he was also chosen top 3 on Russia as well.

Comet Fan 0727 Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Can we put the height thing to rest? VP is just about as tall as the goalie, who I looked up was 6’3”. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nave Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Thought the game was at 6:30... But I saw that Podkolzin got player of the game for Russia. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if the goalie is lying about his height? Anyway, it doesn't really matter right now what his height is, the thing is that the young guy is on fire at the World Juniors. He plays with emotion and skill and that's good. He just won the player of the game against Canada as well as one of the top three players for Russia for the tournament. I look forward to seeing him in a Canucks jersey as soon as possible. Go Canucks Go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go Canucks Go! I agree 100%. I don’t care what his stat line is for the tournament....he plays a pro game and will just get better and stronger. Just the type of player you want going into 7 game playoff series. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
