Confirmed with Link: Panarin taking leave of absence from NYR (Warning in First Post)

[vorky]

yes I didn't like the tone of the twiit I put up but I'd like OG source and accusation up there too (with translation even though he did translate the point perfectly). so that people can read between lines even though the lines are now as wide as railroad tracks.

If you want something to add to the pinned message, then I recommend the interview with Nazarov from today. It is up to everyone to decide what is important for him/her from this interview. For example, Nazarov says that the Latvian so-called journalist Alvis Kalnins is not credible at all, he is not even a journalist. And, Nazarov says that "a half of Russian hockey people, if not all, know this Panarin story for a long time," and adding "nobody wants to comment it now, all former Vityaz players are not responding to journalists calls these days." And I could go on quoting him.

Why would we link an article from a guy who is almost certainly talking out of his ass

That’s the old world, in this day and age you’re guilty until proven innocent when it comes to anything like this - I agree that’s wrong.

Maybe under circumstances in the US. My experience is that no one is buying what Nazarov is selling.

 

[BlueSeal]

Today’s Journalism is geared more towards clicks and sales than really giving an unbiased look at the facts. I take all of this with a grain of salt.

Because it's relevant to the situation.


Nazarov is quickly becoming a "persona non grata". He bit off more than he can chew and is stupid enough to double down.

I don't think he'll ever get a higher-level coaching job in Russia again.

Seems pretty clear because it jives with the Putin sycophant's view of the world.

Can you imagine Quinn still won’t put lafreniere on pp1 lol. Guy is unreal

I hope this whole ordeal doesn’t mirror the Kanter situation with Erdogan. Enos can never go home again and his family had to disown him to avoid persecution.

Generally speaking, if you want objectively judge some case, you need to know the opinion of all sides involved.

We have already heard from Nazarov. Conspiracy theories about why everyone is refuting him or declining to comment is not evidence in support of his allegations.

Hey thanks for replying for my message. I have political opinions but I don't talk about them. All I asked was that for the topic it would be right to put the original accusation with sources (transcribed of course) so that talking about it would be easier. I'm here for good hockey talk and maybe some laughs.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

In what universe is Slava Malamud a credible personality? Just asking ...

Let's pretend that he's not credible at all.

What is wrong with what he said? Nazarov is clearly mentally unstable (he was trying to attack fans with a stick, for God's sake). And the statement is essentially what Nazarov said.

Nazarov is a lunatic, basically. That's precisely what's going on, here.

This sounds more like Nazarov is living in a fever dream than anything else.

His unfounded, unproven conspiracy theories wouldn't even be printed in the New York Post if he had started this shit, here.

Unfortunately, that's the problem with thug dictators like Edrogan and Putin.

I'm no Putin supporter, but calling him a dictator is a bit much. We're not North Korea for heaven's sake.

People criticize Putin all the time. Big freakin deal. I mean Zadorov has said stuff in the past an nobody cares. Putin isn't the totalitarian comic book character he's portrayed as in America.

Sure the political landscape is Russia is messed-up. But things aren't on a dictator/democracy or all/nothing scale.

Lmao.

While I agree with the bolded, when Putin is passing on laws to reform Russian constitution so that he can basically remain in power for his life (if and when he gets re-elected), is calling him a dictator really that far off? Maybe "eternal president" might be more accurate, I don't know lol.

Weve already heard and seen from him and you see his clear bias against Artemi due to his political beliefs. How much more do we have to hear from a clearly faulty narrator.

I mean your the one putting things on an all or nothing scale by saying any dictator has to be as bat shit crazy and totalitarian as Kim Jong Un. The fact still remains hes an autocrat who silences his political enemies, erdogan was also elected "president" is he any less of an autocrat scumbag?

Vladimir Putin is a dictator. The pretend elections don't change anything.

You don't have to be North Korea to be a dictator.

I think you should put quotes around "if and when" since we all know that's more or less sarcasm, lol.

 

[Kovalev27]

Honestly at this point I’ve never said this but I don’t even care what happens this season. It’s been a train wreck. The coach is a joke. Really all I care about is everyone coming out of it healthy and safe. And moving on in 21-22. I’m concerned about the long term symptoms of Covid. What that does to a guy like kakko.

It’s a lost season.

Who do you think will win the next election for President of Russia?

As this season goes on I find myself less excited and cheering less when we score, but I still cheered when Laf scored last game. At this point for me it's a development season. I care more about Laf & Kakko producing than us winning.
