Carol Schram: Podkolzin named Russia captain for this week's Karjala Cup tournament Canucks fans will get to see prospects Vasily Podkolzin and Dmitry Zlodeyev go up against some pro competition from Finland, Sweden and the Czech Republic in this week's Karjala Cup in Finland.

Thanks Carol!

Thank you Carol

Thanks Carol

I missed the chat.....

I guess I'll just post a song

thank you Carol

I voiced my opinion on Podkolzin, I don’t think he’s going to be what everyone expects, it’ll be interesting to see how he does at this tournament.

I don't either.

I think Podk will be what we wished JV would be. He'll be a physical player, who is good defensively and can pot 25-30g a season.

Big news week lets strike up the band!
Karjala Cup who the FRANK cares!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Agreed for the most part. Think he'll be that abrasive, in your face player you love having on your team. Good defense, tenacious, buzz-saw kind of guy who puts up 20-25 goals and has underrated passing abilities. He's about 30 lbs lighter than JV right now, so won't be that kind of heavy hitter.

Not on the 2nd line next season? Are you suggesting he's going to be on the 1st line? Wow.

I mean, getting a 226 pound sack of A&W launched into you still hurts

I think he’ll be in the AHL when he disappoints in his first camp.
