Are their "better" players anything special though? Once you get past names like Kovalchuk and Datsyuk, most of their players are likely on par with the NHL busts that Canada will be sending. It's not exactly the Red Army team with the KLM line.
Look at the current KHL stats:

Nigel Dawes and Linden Vey are the top 2 players in points per game in the KHL right now.
