What if it doesn't take 4 years? He could play for the Russian army team or something for 12 years.

Malkin actually did defect. He was blackmailed into a contract in Russia, but left his team on a trip abroad. www.denverpost.com/2006/08/12/malkin-reportedly-leaves-russian-team-in-finland/IIRC, he was protected in a hotel in Vantaa by Pens scouts, before they got him the flight and visa to Pittsburgh. And that was back when it was easy.

How good are Hawks scouts when it comes to human trafficking?

How good are Hawks scouts when it comes to human trafficking? Can they hire the Biden Junta?

Over 6 feet, speaks good English, and isn’t signing a KHL extension. He’s the pick and will be on the Hawks by next spring.

Both will likely be a foundational block so can’t go wrong, but defense is more important than forward.

Bedard probably already got a lot of O-help from local girls in Prague night clubs.

Bedard probably already got a lot of O-help from local girls in Prague night clubs. Not to mention a couple tasty goulash recipes.
