Nikishin looks like a great prospect but he’s also 2 years older than both Zellweger and Mintyukov. Let’s see how the ANA duo look this year vs men.

To which I have two words: Mikko Lehtonen.

lmao? I can start listing KHL players that never pan out if you really want, and clearly if he does commit to coming over he may be better but thats a big if



I fail to see any world this is slightly bad for CAR

McTavish is the best piece in this deal and LaCombe and the Ducks 24 second is very clearly more valuable than Nikishin

it is BRUTAL for ANA, they dont even consider this

1 - Heh. Is that supposed to be some sort of point? After you do the irrelevant KHL flops, then do all the volumes of irrelevant mid 2nd rounders who don't pan out. This is attempted cherry picking, sir. One thing has little if anything to do with the other.

2 -

Lehtonen was much older than Nikishin when he started to excel in the KHL. What makes Nikishin so exciting is that he became a dominant KHL player at the ages of 20-21.
