Man, we have some incredible irony here on our hands.

For Vancouver Canucks fans, it appears that Vasili Podkolzin’s on-ice dominance was short-lived at this point, as the coaching staff of SKA St Petersburg have started playing the Canucks top prospect as the 13th forward in the KHL.

As for Montreal Canadiens fans, it’s the complete opposite. Riding off the coattails where we spoke about how Kotkaniemi was facing unfortunate circumstances which he hadn’t faced in a while, the Habs 3rd overall pick bounced back in a big way scoring two goals earlier yesterday.

It’s a video covering two tales for my two favourite teams, so enjoy.

I post video game commentaries on YouTube revolving around “hockey”, with a primary focus on “Vancouver Canucks”, “Montreal Canadiens”, “Detroit Red Wings”, and top “NHL prospects” topics.

  1. Ay i love these prospect vids keep em up no such thing as too much coverage keep it up

  2. Lego keep doing what you do. You got a lot of fans. I’m off social media so I RELY on your consistent and thorough coverage of Montreal hockey. And it’s sooooooo appreciated. Love your channel. Do your thing, screw the haters – they’re a minority.

  3. lol It's not an airport you don't need to announce your departure. Those folks are like writing an online "suicide note". They crack me up. you Rock Leggo

  4. Just remember, in life, you'll always have 33% of the people that loves you, 33% will hate you and 33% won't give a crap. Keep up the good work young man, and screw the haters and bitching queens

  5. I guess it shows the benefit of the AHL for teams. In Europe the teams know they won't get the benefits of the players a few years down the line, so they will do what is best for their time in the moment and tbh, can't blame them

  6. Eff that guy.

    I enjoy every single one of your vids.

    Plus your singing voice is a combination of Ferge and Jesus.

  7. Well, I think the people who love your videos don’t always express it in the comments, and the ones who don’t like it just hate in the comments, don’t worry about them man, your channel is literally perfect.

  8. Kotkaniemi is suppose to be franchise according so some people so if he doesn’t put up 50 goals or 100 points people will always be criticizing.

  9. The only reason I have ever doubted Podkolzin was the negativity of people who have responded negatively. This guy is improving with little to no help. Now to me it is how good will he be barring no injury. That is at the NHL level.

  10. Yeah man, the real public does like it. Always more Thumbs up than thumbs down, don't let the one negative guy affect you ! Love the channel !

  11. The KHL is wack! They are petty against players who are expected to play in the NHL. Romanov had that issue last year in CSKA.

  12. It's as if all the coaches have been told not to play him in key roles because he's heading to the NHL. At least that's how it looks. It seems so petty, and in the long run hurts both the player and the team. He seems to just keep his mouth shut and continue to play his game.

  13. I like your prospects videos will you be doing one on World Jrs, Mark Masters dropped Canada prelims camp roster probably deepest prospect pool of players since Crosby Ovie/lockout year…

  14. Ay I’m a new follower this is my first video of yours I’m watching but all I gotta say is stick it to em! P.s I’m here to stay

  15. Its your channel. Make videos about whatever the hell you want. Your viewers do enjoy them and I personally, agree with your take most of the time 👍 keep it up!

  16. You should talk about how the coaches are playing Cole Caufield, in my opinion he should’ve left the team like Alex last year

  17. And another thing to add on to Cole Caufield I’d talk about how he’s getting more assists then goals and and say why he is because he doesn’t even have a goal I think he has 4 assists

  18. LoL GOTCHA!!!!

    Don’t let ppl know they made you upset it’ll only make them want to get you going more…

    I didn’t unsubscribe but I still believe you’re beating a dead horse… just giving you constructive criticism something your generation is not too good at handling. Take it, don’t react, learn from it and move forward.
