Pretty sure he meant it as a negative. Like he has a lot of skill but not much structure to his game. Still needs to learn things like positioning? Stick work? Defensive play? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Llji meant that Klimovich is very raw -- lots of talent but not good at the little things, so to speak. It would fit what others have said about him as well -- skilled but unrefined. Considering his highest level of coaching/ training is a second tier league in Belarus, that's not surprising. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps, just seems to contradict his first statement "Skill for days," and also what some others have said. Too vague to know. I mean, i did see that clip of Podkolzin undressing him (deke-wise, you perverts) so maybe he meant in the "little things" sense, not hands, so you could be right. Or Lalji needs an editor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddogy Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Recall Nikolay Goldobin, decent size, great hands, good skater, great attitude, felt really sorry that he did not make it. It is too early to judge Klimovich. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is too early to judge Klimovich. Goldy and great attitude? Nice enough guy, but he didn’t want to play hard without the puck. Klim has a much better attitude about how to play the right way than Goldy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Stierlitz Posted September 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 24, 2021 From Daniel Wagner ("Pass It To Bulis") today: Canucks head coach Travis Green will answer questions about players during training camp and give his opinion but it’s rare that he volunteers a name. But, when asked if any players had surprised him at camp so far, Green offered up some rare praise. “Our young draft pick from last year, second-rounder, [Danila] Klimovich has looked good,” said Green. “He's a big kid, skates well...I thought [Karel] Plasek had a pretty good game today. Again, a young guy, it's not always easy to stick out but I liked his energy and he looked like he can make a play. Yet it's still hard for a young guy to come in and make a lot of plays, so you're kind of projecting with some guys.” Klimovich certainly stood out on the ice, wiring several hard shots during drills with an impressive release. With his size and skating, he was able to push back in battles and create space for himself. “I love all the battles, I love the speed, I really enjoy the small ice,” said Klimovich via translator. As for his shot, Klimovich is setting his sights high: “I'm trying to compare myself in the future with Kucherov and Ovechkin.” 5 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
