No love lost between me and the B's, but I always liked Z. Wild history. Many believed Isles fucked up trading him for Yashin (yep), and the Sens didn't treat him well either. Look what all ended up happenin'. Good for him.

The lesson. Once you 've got your bag, oppression is no longer a problem. Find a place that won't tax you to death, and/or cozy up to the guy that makes the tax laws.

Is he bad and can challenge six other losers to play on the fourth line? If so, I'm in.

Yes.
When it comes to whether to oppose or support a brutal, murderous genocidal tyrant, there is always a choice.
I wonāt claim that itās always an easy choice. Or that making the right choice doesnāt often come at great personal peril for you & your loved ones.
But Iād posit that wasnāt the case with Mogilny. It should have been an easy choice. He, his wife & kids were all US citizens and had been living in North America for decades. And he had plenty of wealth and wherewithal to keep himself and them safe & comfortable there. Both with the NHL money heād already earned in his playing career and the continued NHL employment opportunities available to star ex-players.
Yet he made the decision to both return to Russia and hop into bed with Putin. Either because heās a monster who genuinely believes in what Putin is doing, or because heās an amoral POS who doesnāt give a shit as long as he can benefit from being a famous Russian hockey player in a country whoās dictator adores hockey.
Heās been the Team President of a Russian KHL team for 12 seasons now, and was a āconsultantā for the team three years prior to that.
So seems like a good bed that his āreasonsā are the big bags of blood money heās paid and the societal benefits and power that come from being in the good graces of the dictator of the country he lives in.

I got a feeling with the C shortage and teams desprate for one, some team is going to pay a massive price for Brayden Schenn and be very disappointed.
