Reply With QuoteI think he is worth picking up. Think of it as the value of any other top 5 Forward in this year\'s class and add the Russian ?. For example, how much would you rate stamkos down if he was in Russia?

Is he ever going to leave Russia? Is he worth picking up in the draft this year? Any thoughts?

I\'m pretty confident he will come over next year.
There was another thread that talked about it.. There is also an article over at hockeysfuture.com abotu him.
He\'s well-educated, knows english already, and is none too happy that he has been playing 2nd tier hockey over there.
Doesn\'t seem to be a prima donna, like a lot of russians. Sounds very much like a hard worker and recognizes where the best league in the world is.
Looked pretty decent in the WJC to me.
