I'd trade him for Steve Duchesne, Peter Forsberg, Ron Hextall, Kerry Huffman, Mike Ricci, Chris Simon, two firsts, and fifteen million dollars.
And McDavid and Draisaitl. (Salary Retained.)

Gotta get him some American nutrition. World class shit we got velveeta cheese, chezits, hard salami, wawa hoagiefest six dollar classics, plenty of beer. Good ol boys shit. Have him call up Jakey to show him how e to eat
Hoping this is just a strange hiccup like how is he always sick. Dudes a supreme talent that alters a franchise, hopefully it’s just a weird string of illnesses.

I would honestly not value Russian health expertise too highly for someone so comparitively non-relevant as Michkov, especially in Sochi region.
There's lots of factors to worry about re: Michov [given latest geopolitical situation and how fluid it is], but this is not one of them.

If based on the chicken broth borsch (yes, no way you'll make any Russian spelling it with the 't' at the end) can be rather good, although I prefer to use beef ribs for that instead... yes, I better go get some snack before I make this thread about the culinary lol.

There is a test you must pass before speaking of food on this board.
Is a hot dog a sandwich?
Anything to get this thread to reach the heights of the Gauthier thread...

No, in Russia it is definitely not considered a sandwich. True Russian sandwich looks like this, so quite different from a hot-dog:

Brings back memories of my time in Yerevan at the edge of the millenium, where the only decent restaurants were a Russian restaurant with great Borsch (and a hole in the wall that was word of mouth to keep the local Mafia away). All the good chefs had migrated to Sacramento for some reason.
Good stuff. But people thought entertainment was black bread, cheese and vodka, lots of vodka.

Interesting, I always thought that the local Armenian restaurants should be more interesting comparing to Russian cuisine, at least I always really liked a good Armenian dolma.
With all that being said I should note, in case anyone reading this will be in a Russian restaurant some day: borsch is sort of a classic, but the real queen of Russian soups is solyanka.

Caviar is the best thing Russia produces IMO, but I also really like pickled tomatoes more than one should.

Caviar isn't exactly a dish, just a product that, despite the common stereotype, is produced not only in Russia. Btw, to be at least a bit on topic, I'm sure Michkov has it in his menu, as it is considered good in terms of sports nutrition.
Ok, then here is the Russian caviar sandwich lol:

One of my Russian girlfriends was an awesome cook. Her Borsch was tasty and I am normally not a fan of that soup. The other one wasn't much of a cook..lol

It very well suits my theory that Russian dishes need quite some skill to be tasty, but already a mediocre cooking skill makes those rather awful, so kind of no middle ground here.

She made some kind of beef mushroom soup ...or maybe it was just mushroom. Can't recall. All I remember is that soup with the mushrooms was amazing! Still can taste it. She was making me fat....

Do you at least put some yellow mustard on that thing?No, in Russia it is definitely not considered a sandwich. True Russian sandwich looks like this, so quite different from a hot-dog:

It might be some form of the solyanka soup at least by the way it sounds.
No, only the hardcore brown mustard, it can be put on pretty much everything lol.

There are several really good Russian restaurants in NE Philly, which makes sense with the concentration of people from that region. We went to one that was a BYOB. The thing is no one brought wine, they all brought bottles of vodka.

Used to go to Shish Kabob Palace on Grant Avenue....used to be really good. I think they were Uzbek but served Russian and middle eastern dishes. Heard it is not as good anymore. My one Russian gf from Ukraine lived in that area...we didn't really go out to eat much around there but should have since she was the one that wasn't that great of a cook. We would go to NetCost market alot which was a cool place.
I always came out with a sore neck due to all the "talent" I would see in that place. I also had a few bruises from my gf for my wandering eyes ...lol.
