They take a certain amount of KHLers and Semin is having a poor season this year while missing time with a concussion (after posting a PPG last year). ie- Viktor Tikhonov.

Also very questionable picks like Anisimov, Kulemin and Nichushkin over Semin.

supposedly russia's doing top 6 - bottom 6 approach.
and figured nichuskin was the better option

Semin is one of the most underrated defensive players in the NHL.

For those into the advanced stats, Semin is #2 in the NHL in Relative CORSI for those that have played >20 games this season.

Fun times.

ps- I hate advanced stats.
