I'm surprised that Nikolai Zherdev, Denis Zaripov, and Alexei Morozov weren't invited.

Zherdev is UNREAL on the big ice... Similar to Kuznetsov he is simply hard to handle with that much room.

I'm surprised that Nikolai Zherdev, Denis Zaripov, and Alexei Morozov weren't invited.

Morozov is too slow with the young studs in the Russian pipeline. However that being said, an invite should have at least been extended even without the intent to pick him. He's been a superstar over there for a decade.

Also, as always, it'll be 50% NHL and 50% KHL. So factor that when making your projects.
