Baffling and enormously stupid reply.

Look at what American Republicans are parroting in regards to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. There's a lot of people down there that bought into QAnon garbage. It's so disheartening.

Republicans supporting an ex-kgb head, who idolizes stalin, and wants to recreate the soviet empire with capitalist oligarchs as the proletariat is the weirdest thing ever.

Fedotov is literally being sent to an artic gulag as punishment. How can a team even morally justify drafting a russian at this point when it puts them in physical peril?

I don't buy that argument at all. It's not like being drafted by Buffalo forced Mogilny to defect. It gave him a choice, one he took.
Being drafted and getting the resources from an NHL team behind them probably gives them a better chance at making it over to North America if they so chose instead of being an "unnamed" random non-NHL affiliated player trying to get here.

Mogilny was drafted at a time when tensions between the USSR and the west were thawing a lot, under Gorbachev. Calgary drafted Pryakhin the same draft and he was even given permission to come over. In fact, he played NHL hockey before Mogilny.
Russia under Putin during wartime is a different animal altogether.

FC's scouting staff is basically like a 33rd NHL team at this point.

Whoever he overreacts about being picked too early will likely have a HOF career.
