What exactly is 'Sweden Hockey Games' and why is it involved in ranking KHL players?

There should be a description a few pages back. Basically, major hockey Euros ( Russia, Sweden, Finland and Czech Republic) play 4 leg National Teams tournament, one leg in each nation. Russia just won the Swedish leg. These 3 were named the best in their position this leg.
 
Surprised no one brought up Shesty today. Lost 4-2 with a .840 save % (21-25). Didn't see highlights, so I don't know if there were any bad goals.

Two bad goals, I thought. Probably his worst game in months. The translations are kind of hard to understand, but it seemed like Znarok came to his defense when asked about his performance.

Also, which one of you asked him on his Ask FM account that I linked if there was a chance he'd play for the Rangers in the next 2-3 years? :laugh: Whoever did so probably should've asked him in Russian. Who even knows if he understood the question? He answered yes, he usually avoids those types of questions, and doesn't really give an answer.

SKA's first playoff game I think is on Tuesday. Would be nice if Igor was the starter. He's been way better than Koskinen this season.
 
I tried reading Shesty's AskFM page with google translate, but it came out as mostly gibberish, lol. Nothing made sense.

A lot of it is just fan-girls who are probably like 15 years old asking him if they could meet him, and things like that. :laugh:

He does say some interesting things though. Recently someone asked him if he's always excited when he plays, and he says not always. If I was to guess, today might've been one of those days, based on his performance. :help:

I'm actually pretty excited for the playoffs, as long as he is starting.
 
If anyone is interested, I asked him a fluff question the other day and even though his response is just one word, I can't help but feel that this cat is looking forward to come over.

I think I'm more interested in your username. :laugh:

Well, I watched Ryan Hollweg do the safety dance and ever since I knew I'm just not a dancer... he ruined it for me.


Wait, did he respond yes? Or who wrote that?

Shesty responded to it... IF he really is the one responding on that page.

But yeah I did get a notification saying that Igor responded. If you click on the link provided you can actually see it under "latest answers"

Someone needs to ask him a more specific question regarding the Rangers. I didn't think he would respond and kept it fluff on purpose.
 
I think it is Igor. He's been responding in Russian to most of the messages he gets.

And I know he only said "yes" to your question, but I wonder if he's learning English before he comes over to NA.
 
Playoffs start Tuesday.

SKA vs Vityaz

Vityaz from a few years ago should've been called Chiefs. :naughty:

It is their first playoff appearance. Should add widely unexpected. SKA should take care of them in 5 (if it's the best of 7).
