Exclamation [Video] Kris Russell 14/15 Highlights


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WW_0c-8HnU

What a work horse. Stepped up huge after Gio went down! Still can't believe we got him for only a 5th rounder. Seems like the fanbase is split on Russell, but I think he's a pretty important part of the team and figure he'll be extended if possible.

Video coming next:
I've finished all the ones I had planned. I think I may do a final Glencross video for his half season here given his retirement and how long he was a Flame.

Videos done since the end of last season:
- Comeback Wins
- Backlund
- Bennett
- Bouma
- Brodie
- Colborne
- Ferland vs Vancouver
- Gaudreau Part 1
- Gaudreau Part 2
- Giordano
- Hudler
- Jooris
- Monahan
- Rookies
- 2004 Moments

Thanks! Great idea on the Glencross tribute. Would you use highlights from all years or just last year ? He definitely scored some nice goals in flames silks.

Just last year, I have videos from his previous 4 seasons done already.

Loved that backhand pass.. He definitely had a bit more confidence last year... Hope he picks it up, CP seems to love or hate him.. I don't mind him but if we get a decent return that would be good.

Yeah that backhander to Jooris is one of the best passes I've seen. Just insane.

Hard not to like Russell because the guy leaves everything out there and flashes some skill too.

But it can be too easy to fall in love with your own players even when your team is not that good. Flames should get whatever assets they can for him and develop a younger cheaper version to play on bottom pairing IMO.

Love what Russell can bring, just wish he was used in a more sheltered role so that his strengths can be magnified and his weaknesses masked.
