Discard the passport argument and Simashev Gulyayev should be top 12 picks, easily.
I'm a huge fan Simashev personally. 6'4" and has elite edgework on top of silky playmaking and some strong defensive acumen. Only area of work I've read up on is scoring and shooting. I can live with that. Slap him with a weegar type, I think you'd have a insane top pairing comparable to the upper echelon of D pairings league wide.
I'm very enamored with Simashev. Even if Gulyayev has a higher ceiling.

Agreed on everything. I take Sim over Gully, and there's a massive offensive pop in Simashev just waiting under the surface. He's going to be a steal.
Gully is a Russian ASP.
