Shinzaki 72 Report post Posted May 24, 2014 Remember when the KHL was viewed as a threat to sign top tier NHL FA's? Now it's become professional hockey's version of Japanese baseball. Cory-san? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dabura 12,206 Report post Posted May 24, 2014 Thats odd. I didnt know being invisible 95% of the time was good? He's a good hockey player. He's just not much more than a fourth-liner in the NHL. Which, from our perspective, makes him worthless, because he's not going to help our team. But if he can be more valuable to a KHL team (and make way more money), more power to him. 1 puckbags reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jesusberg 1,256 Report post Posted May 24, 2014 Plugov? Honestly it's nice he's getting to play somewhere, and even better it won't be with the Wings. Sounds harsh but he clearly didn't have a future with the team. I'd rather they call up someone with the potential of making the lineup rather than use a player purely for spackle. I don't think I've ever heard a player referred to as being for spackle. I like that. I'm going to use that one in the future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sibiriak 84 Report post Posted May 26, 2014 Hope Siberia can appreciate his unique talents. Sochi Leopards? That's as far from Siberia as you can get and still be in Russia. Geography, it's not just for kids anymore. :0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or in Canada referring to Victoria BC as part of the Maritimes. 1 55fan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
