  1. Artyom Levshunov should return to Michigan State for another year. He needs to mature both mentally and physically, i.e., receive a full year of closely supervised strength training, and a year of stability and additional coaching and confidence will pay dividends in the long run.

  2. MSU wouldn't be bad place to bulk up and polish his skills. He's only been in North America for two years. The Hawks have time to let him develop.

  3. The ex Blackhawks? The Ex Blackhawks, top 12 forwards in goals scored and top 6 defensemen in goals scored, eere the highest scoring team in the NHL last year and were cap compliant, in lufing goalies. And I expect yhem to repeat, even with the loss of Tesvo.

  4. There’s no rush to be good as a team yet. Let Lev develop more, allow him to jump right into the top4 confidently in a season or two. No reason to risk forcing him into something he’s not ready for with all of that pressure. He’s already dealing with all the Demidov talk, he doesn’t need a bad rookie season and immediate bust allegations thrown on top of that.
