I wouldn't say he is a level above them.. The guy has never even played a game in the NHL...
I understand both arguments about the not going to the AHL but it makes sense in his point of view as why leave the KHL top league in russia to play in the AHL. They just get the stereotype because it is common of them but it does make sense in their best interest
