Prospect Info: Sergei Murashov, 118th overall, 2022 NHL Draft

[steelcityassault]

Is Wilkes-Barre really all that much better?

Surprisingly, yes but it's still depressing just not total hell with a casino in it.

And I mean as far as how I've heard players talk about living in both

If you get bored during the evening in WBS you can sit on your porch and watch for the Live PD (or whatever its called now) crew I suppose.

ECHL is a clown show for developing skaters but is fine for a goalie- however it’s not optimal.

I feel bad for Gauthier though, he seems lower end than Blomqvist and Murashov but also a legit prospect in his own right.

 

[Jacob]

Larsson has to clear waivers I think- which he probably will, but you never know. They don’t need to make a decision right away though.

Worst comes to worst they can also loan a goalie to another AHL team or just rotate 3 in the AHL since there’s so many B2Bs and 3-in-3s. But Gauthier is probably wasted in the ECHL and Murashov hopefully doesn’t need much time down there either.

And 1 injury will solve it for them.

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

Any chance they do this to loan him to a Liiga or SHL team? Aren’t Russians banned though? Idk.

 

[Turin]

W. Make him the starter

I've not personally been to WBS, but my wife is from Wheeling. It's the city (?) version of a festering boil on a genital wart attached to a syphilitic hog.

No one wants to go to unless they're trafficking in drugs. Or, they're getting DiCarlos ...

just trade Jarry…problem solved…lol

 

[SEALBound]

Oh wow, wonder what the plan is with WBS now. You have Blom, Gauthier and Larsson who all need time to play.

Easy, launch Jarry into the sun. Let Neds and Blom carry the load until our savior Murashov is ready


Jarry = Minimi.
Murashov = Scottie
Dr. Evil = Pens org and the fans
Goldmember = me
Henchmen turning nobs = HFPens.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

Interesting if true.

Idk...feel like the goalies at least get a ton of work in the ECHL.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

I agree that goalies in the ECHL are fine because they get a lot of playing time. However, I'd hate to send a foreigner to a "lesser" city like Wheeling. Not saying WBS is a great city but didn't Zlobin (or someone else like that) say how horrible Wheeling was? I'm assuming Tiffels had the same opinion.

Yep and JS Dea almost lost his mind when him and I think Archibald came down for a small conditioning stint and they threw them living in the middle of Wheeling woods in a log cabin. Lol

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

Zlobin is a bit spoiled considering he's a Muscovite. I mean... I actually live like ten minutes from the place and have to go through there multiple times a week. The biggest problem with Wheeling is that everything closes early so there is no nightlife, there is nothing to do and the food scene sucks. Drug running? Log cabins? lol... props for the imagination at least! Muggings still make the news in Wheeling and the only log cabins are fishing weekend getaways way out on Big Wheeling Creek.

Also DiCarlos is nasty. But that's sorta Steubenville's fault. At least originally.

 

[cookthebooks]

i am just thinking about what we put minor league baseball players through

 

[Randy Butternubs]

My condolences.

Aka it's terrible for young professional athletes.

 

[cookthebooks]

that sounds perfect for young professional athletes who want to worry about maximizing their career earnings in their relatively slim windows to do that

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

My condolences.

I mean I dunno. Probably not what they should be worried about but I get what you mean.

It's just fascinating to me because didn't most of ya come from Western PA? Hardly the height of high falutin, champagne breakfast, pinky-in-the-air living. Wheeling is just another Pittsburgh suburb/old river town but a little sleepier and a little more tucked away with lots of old money. Nothing more nothing less. You're kinda clownin' on yourselves here in some ways since it's basically your own backyard. Which is fine! I make fun of the tri-state all the time, too and I live here.

lol... log cabins.

That's what JS Dea called them. What is he referring to?

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

I dunno. He was probably just unhappy that he couldn't hack it and was being a dick.

They don't put up the Nailers in log cabins my dude. That's... kind of a nutbar thing to believe.

Was quite complimentary of it here actually lol

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

Oh my. Well that's definitely interesting and I stand corrected. I had no idea they were doing that at a certain point but here we are lol.

The cabins he's referring to are up at Oglebay resort. They ARE cabins. But like... think luxury vacation cabins. They are also quite expensive to rent so that was a... choice... by the organization. I would way rather live in one of those as opposed to a downtown apartment especially since you can actually just drive up to the lodge and get some actual decent food then go golfing if that's your thing. Oglebay is a pretty nice resort. A byproduct of all that old money I referred to, earlier.

I thought we were talking like... Abe Lincoln log cabins with an outhouse lol

I'm pretty sure they're looking for someone to put their dick in, too. Can't imagine Oglebay is teeming with younger people.

Uh... no. No it's not. It's almost all families and Boomers playing golf.

As for that particular stated objective... I mean... I would talk to some of the Nailers here and there back in the day "out on the town" or whatever passes for it around here while ordering drinks or playing pool. They didn't seem to be having too many problems in that regard lol

It was presumably a lot more fun when the WV drinking age was 18, but that was a long time ago.
