Player Discussion Vitali Kravtsov - ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[VanJack]

What are you talking about? The discussion (which you raised) is whether Kravtsov can "refine" his two-way 200 foot game. Tocchet can "co-exist" with any player. The fact that he can "co-exist" with a player is irrelevant to the discussion as it doesn't mean Kravtsov can/has refined his two-way 200foot game and that Tocchet will play/utilize such player.

Granted it was only a limited sample size, but in his brief stint with the Canucks his defensive game wasn't all that bad. It was offense, where he delivered almost nothing.

And clearly he didn't want to play another season in the AHL. So he went back to Russia where he could earn more money. But maybe with the benefit of more pro experience in the KHL, he can 'improve', 'develop', or 'refine' his two-way game?

We're arguing about 'semantics' here.

What part of this argument was semantic, exactly?

The difference between 'refine', 'develop' or 'improve'. A dictionary might help.
