You cant stop the lion. Huge goals massive hits complete destruction of the other team. The NHL is officially on alert It's too soon to be russian to judgement on the kid. I ain't lion. Not before he's played a game in the NHL. But I AM excited to see him play here. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VforVasili Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 Let's not prejudge him but I would say it is: Very Very Very Verifiable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildwood12 Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 Let's build him up to a height that he cannot reach and then throw him under the bus when he can't meet expectations! LOL 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think we have anyone with his drive actually... Maybe Motte... MAYBE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McBackup Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 "The Lion"? I thought he was the Moscow Mule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnews Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 No pressure VP. You're just expected to be the franchise's greatest playoff performer. Linden, Sedins, Bure....no problem. And while we're at it - Rathbone - is already/all ready - to take Edler's hard minutes and bust out as an all situations top four stud!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you going to crucify him? How about be excited for the kid. And just appreciate whatever he brings. I know I'm just going to love his compete level, because the kid wants to win. That's always a good foundation. It was only months ago that many people were microing his WJC production and already getting down on him. But for those that watched Russia's games - he was an all situations, outstanding backbone of a player - "foundation" is exactly it. Now we're reverse microing his KHL playoffs (which are also extremely impressive imo on the counterpoint - production). I have a great deal of excitement about what he's going to bring - he's exactly the kind of young forward addition this group needs imo. But I'm gonna hold off on expecting him to surpass Trevor Linden. I mean - Trevor Linden was a point per game player in the playoffs in his first five NHL seasons. 62 playoff games - 64 points! A trip to the finals where he scored 25 pts in 24 games. He was 23 years old in 93/94. Nah - not high expectations to surpass that lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butters Stoch Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 Stop laughing guys. Podkolzin is literally a generational player. People need to shut up about when Ovie is going to break Gretzky's goal record and start talking about when Pod is going to break his goal AND points record. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuxfanabroad Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 You people puttin' the cart before the Mule, are gettin' carried away. Tryin' to talk this kid to the Hockey Hall, before the first puck is dropped. We gotta keep perspective; however should also appreciate the Eagles have already written a ditty on his exploits!

The Lion is okay, never mind male lions are lazy which he's anything but. The first time i saw clips of him they were describing him as lion-hearted and it fit. I was thinking Podzilla as Godzilla had offensive skill (possessed a laser shot, albeit from his eyes) but won the hearts of the people as a great defender. But yeah, The Lion.

VforVasili Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 People keep on bringing up Cody Hodgson as a "gotcha" point to not get too excited about a player with promise. The thing is, I watched Hodgson play live in the World Juniors and he was the best player on the ice. He absolutely dominated. Don't mistake a player with health or personal issues that derail their career for having been a player without promise or talent. See Ollie Juolevi for further evidence. Pod is a player with talent and promise! Get excited! Any predictions of what exactly that promise will amount to may well join many others as roadkill on the highway of hockey development. No need to dish on previous players who struggled with injuries and health problems to make that point. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green is going to love this player, and play him a lot The SKA rink is actually a 60x26m rink so the ice size is actually slightly shorter and the same width. it’s not an international or Finnish size rink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That he's going to win the Calder, Art Ross, Maurice Richard and Tim Horton's Trophies too next year. ..........and they almost never lie! I thought they also said he was going to score the Cup winning goal which will be quite the feat considering we won’t make the playoffs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
