What makes you say that? I'll admit, I haven't consistently watched many of their games in in SHL and KHL respectively. I do know that they have similar numbers both in mens leagues (although KHL is rated over SHL) but Podz was the U20 russian captain while offering way more physicality and speed.

I guess you know something Wikipedia doesn't. I've never met the guy, so I can't say anything different.

He just doesn't have the engine Hogz has. Hogz goes every game. Podz shows his play driving when he's invested. He's just a kid that either takes over a game or is completely invisible. That's just the type of player he's always been. If he was consistently at his potential he wouldn't have dropped to the spot we got him at. 

 

But I'm hoping it's just situational but even at World Juniors you see him take nights off as well. Hoggy just isn't that guy. Hoggy has no off switch.

I might go with the Avalanche — young, fast team.

I'm usually an underdog guy but even I really like the Avs.

havent seen any green support this season lol, not sure where there getting that from.

I guess trying to be logical, accessing both good and bad things people may find would make one a supporter? I think most people are on the fence right now on more then one thing here though.

I remember listening to him when he was on the radio here.

im s true homer though I enjoy the Johns  

Loved Rick Ball dig the Lions broadcasts.

In their own end, good teams turn on the brain and anticipate, the Canucks do nothing but react, which is why we are always behind the play. That, in a nutshell, is the Green insignia.

I knew what you meant by it. Do you have anything to add regarding Greens accomplishments in the NHL?

Juolevi's been treated like a pair of too snazzy-colourful socks at the back of the drawer. Should be given at least a period for comfort.

 

Any minute now, His Bobby Orr-mode will burst out.

I really dislike how we've managed some of our prospects this year. No way Dipietro should have only played 4 games. Same with Rafferty. Killed a year of his progress as well.

enjoying my Crown Royal and dark chocolate more than the intermission

Also who do we root for between Boston and Capitals? I think I'm gonna root for Wilson to Wilson Brad Marchand. 

Caps

This might be the first season ever I root for Minny in the playoffs lol. 

I'm really hoping for Avs vs. Wild. Those two have quite the playoff history - including two G7 OT winners courtesy of the Wild.

Nope, not at this time.  I have voiced (typed) my opinion on Green a few times...that is enough. The same ol' same ol' gets tiring after awhile
