Prospect Info: Wings Prospect Discussion

Buchelnikov's interview. His dream is to play in the NHL, but he's ready to play in the AHL as a start... I doubt he will if he keeps progressing at his current pace, though.

"I'm not afraid of the AHL. I'm ready to any challenges".

Looks like he's learning English too. Would be great if he came over next season.

March 23 is end of regular KHL season. Will Buchelnikov join GR? We also have Finie , most likely his team will not make it post season and he's already sign by Red Wings .
If Red Wings bring up Danielson, they should, we have openings in GR
 
Plante's season is over but had a great game. Finishes with 9G 19A in 23 games...ahead of Eiserman and Connelly fwiw. Obviously needs to get bigger, but can't ask for a better D +1 year.




He finished 2nd on his team in points but had the best ppg by a large margin. It will be interesting to see what a good offseason can do for him.

Hehe, Radulov moved to the CHL when Buch was 1 (one year old).

Their families know each others, but I doubt Buch and Radu are big friends. Age difference is too big, and they never played together.
lol ! my minds too far away from the nhl universe to have grasped that . the other russian i miss from that era is danny markov , another old time hockey player

If he can he should. Even if he doesn't get into a game, getting into a spot for everyone to get an up close look can make it easier to decide what to push him to do for next fall.

He's signed for one more year so I think it's next year. I doubt Vityaz will make playoffs next season, so if Detroit gets to the playoffs, there is a chance Buch will go for the cup with the team.

Some russian prospects have been leaving early though even with an extra year on their contracts left. With Buch coming to Detroit last offseason and everything, I wouldnt be shocked if he came over asap. Also wouldnt be shocked if he stayed, I just dont think the extra year means a whole lot with how things have went lately
