For what it's worth, that Jason guy that used to be scouting director of Panthers and other teams, laughed at this point when brought up on a fan 960 interview a week or so ago. He said grushnikov was miles ahead of Kuznetsov and all other similar wrangler defense. Not even in the same league to be nice about it. So I'm not sure your comparison is... Apt, at all
