I also doubt that he had much attention in New York, he's probably overwhelmed with the Vancouver media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenhodgejr Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 I am excited to see how his game progresses. I think he needs to add strength, confidence, and muscle memory to be a more complete hockey player. Im hope full our coaches and training staff can help him out. If he accomplishes these things he could be an elite scoring winger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add in Kuzmenko, and these guys are going to find their magic. It might not be immediate, but, it's a matter of time and confidence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am all for us becoming the next team of Russians like Washington has been. If the KHL collapses, I can only see it giving us an advantage on getting good players.

Maniwaki Canuck Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 Good game from Kravtzov last night, and not just the assist to Boesser. Several smart plays and a bit of grit too. Maybe he's a "wall guy" after all! Lots of chemistry with Podkolzin and Dries: that was a good line for us last night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nergish Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 Can't really get a full read on his overall hockey sense or his drive, but the kid smooth as silk. Pretty incredible puck skills. This could still be a sneaky good pick up for us. Obviously we're all skeptical that this could be another Goldobin - but a 6'3 Russian with Krav's hands is a player worth taking a chance on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope he works out because as you said, Goldy also had high end skill. However, from first couple games, he looks to me like a even more skilled, higher IQ version of goldy. It will come down to his will and conditioning. Hopefully doesn't turn into a tease like goldy did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyndall2 Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 Best thing I observed in last night's game was he was willing to get in the face of the opponents after the whistle. Too many Canucks have been just skating away. Time to stop receiving the cheap shots after the whistle and give some back. Also, loved Burroughs.

Goldobin was also at the end of round 1, in between 2 infamous draft picks in Scherbak and Ho-Sang no less, when he was drafted and, while draft position isn't always the end all of where a player ends up obviously, it does at least give some insight on likely being less expectations on Goldobin than Kravtsov overall. (Random thought: that was quite the run on sentence on my part) Edited March 3, 2023 by The Lock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Western Red Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 At 6'3" and seeing him throw a pretty nice hit last night, we have about 4-5 years before he turns into Nichushkin right? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Podz is a good influence on him.. Great call by Tocchet playing them together. Hopefully it's not just a 'honeymoon phase' scenario though, and he actually builds on his good start. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sativika Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 So far as I've noticed, Krav's positioning is pretty sound. He seems to get himself in areas where he can make a good pass or get a good shot off. I agree that he seems pressured to show what he's capable of to those that took him on. That'll pass I'm sure and it's only a matter of time before he garners points from his play. I'm sure it helps having fellow comrades on the team. Gonch is gravy. Having him as a D coach is a huge plus. It helps that he's Russian as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cripplereh Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 He seems to play with heart and has skill.I am sure in no time he will score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Kravtsov can become the second coming of Nichuskin and Podkolzin can become the second coming of Dustin Brown they would make one heck if a 2nd line (or even good complementary 1st line wingers). Nichuskin took quite a while to get to where he is now though so let's hope Kravtsov develops a little bit faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
