This is all an effort to finally.. 22 years later, get Ruslan Zainulin into the lineup.

Conroy really did learn under Treliving. Here is hoping he is a gem

I guess Russians don't mind Canadian winters?

Those spoiled Americans and Canadians all want to live in Florida.

Bleh, this stinks like a Treliving move. Whatever, probably won't matter long term, but seems like a waste.

ignoring that minor Damiani/Pettersen swap, there has been a Russian player involved in every Conroy trade (Zadorov, Kuzmenko, Grushnikov, Miromanov, Okhotiuk) ... bar his very first trade of course, that one only involved a player from Belarus (Sharangovich). Wild.

Ready for the overreaction to using a 5th round pick here.

Pretty sure the Flames would have had an overwhelming player with that 5th rounder.

Narrator: The Flames haven't picked an NHLer in the 5th round in 14 years.

Do we need to rebrand CP to CCCP now?

Would have only made sense if it was a 2025 5th!

I was thinking, I wonder if he's going after all these Russians because they are less likely to want to leave for an American market? I also wonder if there is something to the idea of having a few players of the same nationality - makes it easier for them, and they are more likely to develop chemistry with each other... could just be random chance, but I wonder if there is a strategy there.
