really not sure I have much to contribute here. did go back and compared him to the big D (don't ask me to spell it ) that NJD took in the first yesterday
as best I can tell over the past 3-4 years there were several seasons where they both represented Russia internationally (not always sure if they were at the exact same tourneys etc)on the same age group teams and if I put together data from same years/ same levels what I find are
New Jersey guy 59 games 17 points .28 ppg
Our guy 38 games 11 points .28 ppg
our guys is 2 months younger
Now it does look as if New Jersey guy played more for the national teams (and has continued to do so with our guy in NA)...ok not sure what this concludes !
