Boy oh boy that Chernyoshov is impressive. He’s big, strong, fast, skilled and plays the game hard. Charges at the net.

MBN, Chernyoshov, and Adam Jiricek are among my early favorites. Excited for the CHL to get going.
Kind of bittersweet they most likely won’t be in a position for the lottery this year…those Demidov highlights are pretty fun to watch.

I’m pretty certain we’ll be in the lottery. I’m thinking 8th to 10th best odds, or thereabouts. Wouldn’t it be nice to finally win it when we didn’t tank to do so?
Just dumb lucking our way into Demidov would really take the sting out of the pain we’re about to feel regarding Michkov.
Oh yeah, I just meant as far as having a chance at the #1 or 2 pick. Seems unlikely but pulling a rabbit out of a hat and moving up like 5-6 spots like some of these teams do once in a while would be pretty amazing. Michkov probably will be pretty awesome…but what can you do? Easy to say right now, but I would probably take a slightly inferior player with higher character every time. If the talent gap is larger then it’s probably worth the risk…I’m pretty certain we’ll be in the lottery. I’m thinking 8th to 10th best odds, or thereabouts.

The Rangers had the 12th best odds when they moved up to 1st overall in 2020.
Chicago moved from 12th to 3rd in 2019.
Carolina from 11th to 2nd in 2018.
Philadelphia from 13th to 2nd in 2017.
We haven’t had a big mover in a few years. I’d say the lottery is due for one. And the Yotes have unbelievably never one a lottery and are certainly well past due. It’s all lining up.

I must be thinking of when they went from #5 up to #2 in 2022. I was thinking it was more spots than that though for some reason. Maybe I was mixing it up with that NYR 2020 move. Absolutely crazy to go from 12 to 1. I’d be thrilled picking somewhere around 10-12th and moving up to 5-6th. You can’t say AZ isn’t due for it for sure

It’s a ten spot move up. So if you win from that range you’re going all the way up to top two.

Watching old Dynamo Moscow games from last season. This Igor Chernyshov is like a throwback powerforward. He’s mean. Looks to hit all the time. Monster shot. Good defensively. Can really skate and shoot. He’s got a rocket.
Looks like you’d expect. Lol.

Watch all the way to the end for a HHOF cameo as he scores a KHL goal at age 16:
So watching these goal highlights, what you don’t see is how much he loves contact and is always looking for a chance to finish a check. Hard-nosed player.
Could definitely see a top ten pick, here. Based on the (so far) relatively small sample of games I’ve watched. I’d probably have him behind Leonard and But, while maybe being ahead of Wood, Barlow, and Honzek. A lot of that is projection because I’m watching his D-1. A lot can change this season, of course. But I do see the makings of a top prospect.

Imagine Crouse, But, Chernyshov and McPAIN all the same team. Each line could have a big mean SOB

Don’t look now:
But it’s a little tricky…

Quick Note: This website sucks.

Thanks for the tip.
The rest of the internet has seemed to be able to keep up with him. So I’ll still blame this website.

He’s also really flashing some highly effective (if not overly creative) playmaking. Really good short passes. He’s not as skilled at it as Cole Perfetti, but when he does it, I’m reminded of Cole Perfetti.
I’ve clipped a couple of videos that show show this well. Also a nice one where he’s hounding the puck, breaking up plays defensively, then goes end to end, demonstrating power, puck protection and impressive edges, then a slick little drop pass right in front of the net for a goal.
I’d post it but this website is from the 1990s and can’t handle it. Twitter can. Not that this website can handle Twitter. Discord has no issues with this either.
