It seems you're shocked he's 220 when it's quite the norm for someone his size to weigh that much.

The NHL could be in trouble if more players opt out and head to Russia.

This league has alot of potential to expand. | might be potential, but its gonna be a LONG time before any of these leagues can ever compete with the NHL. One of those teams you mentioned is playing in a 4,000 seat arena built in 1947....thats barely even BCHL standards

Well hey players are signing with teams in Russia so who thought that would happen. Any league that has the money to lure players from the NHL is a threat.

^ Totally agree. The NHL would take a huge hit if say, Ovechkin (not saying he will leave the NHL), returned to Russia.

Kev | WTF. Either there's a trade in the works for Gillis or we are overloaded on forwards. A 1-way? WTF?

Once the KHL gains some momentum and lures a few nhl stars over, I wouldn't doubt the KHL being any less competitive than the Nhl.

How many wanna bet that Emery somehow goes missing during the year being the shit starter that he is?

typical canucks fans tryin to find something to complain about. and who said this guy is a cancer is just a complete moron, just cause the girls come to see him.
If a guy scores fans complain that he doesnt hit, and if a guy hits alot, u complain that he doesnt score enough. And when he does both u gotta pay him 3+mil and then u complain about him making too much money.
Theres no winning in this city.
Happened with Naslund, Bertuzzi, Cloutier, Cooke, Kesler.
Happening now with the Sedins, Bieksa, Pyatt, Salo, eventually Demitra, and probably Sundin if he comes.

Pyatt was one of the few Canucks last year, along with maybe Kesler and Pettenger, who could actually create his own shot. He's really improved on coming down the wing, and using his size to drive to the net/get a shot. For 1.5mil he is a bargain right now.
