Ye, he got back into rather quickly. I think within the next few shifts.
He played one or two shifts, he didn't play in the third period and is questionable for tomorrows game, but should be ok for quarterfinals

Morozov - Zinoviev - Zaripov is the most familiar line of the tournament, nothing more. Send in a top NHL line to a north american sized rink and see what happens.
Kulemin has done the Russia thing, won MVP, and moved on to bigger things. I'd say he's accomplished plenty, including outscoring Morozov in a superior league. The only wingers listed who I'd consider better are Kovalchuk, Ovy and Radulov.
let's not overreact and let's try to respect each other - this finns/cze gang up on Russia 'cuase of Artyukhin...come on...I agree the guy plays borderline dirty, Radulov is crazy at times(caucauses blood talks).
Congrats to the Cze, it was a good game, many cze players spoke out before the game in Russian media and made the game personal, Russia need discipline. What pleases me we only lost by a goal to probably the best team in the tournament and a reigning world champ.
Barulin was pretty good in net, should have stopped Jagr's shot and possibly Plekanec' as well, but nevertheless looked more ready than Naby.
HOLY ****.
Why is the Russian team always so stacked?
I'm thinking the Czech's are going to win this tournament. Very, very solid team.
Why is Kulemin playing 4th line minutes? He'd much better serve the team playing on the second or third with some skilled players. That's a little ridiculous.
