Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

"Theodore may have played his way out of the running for the top spot Thursday after being pulled for Semyon Varlamov. Varlamov did not face any shots, but just the mere fact that he was taken out in an exhibition contest leaves us wondering."

- Rotowire.com with the dumbest analysis you'll read today (note: Varly was credited with playing the first seven seconds of the second period, and even that was simply an official scorer's mistake - he actually didn't play at all)

And Razor Ruddock wants to know what that joke means.

I would have gone the other way with it. Since it’s “Three-or-more” and he only let in 3 we got the best possible game we got from Theo. He’s gotta be the entrenched starter.

….the statement alone is enough to tell me that clicking on that link will kill brain cells. I don’t have enough to spare, so I’ll pass.

Alright, so the info above made my head hurt, but not as much as this fact. I am in five fantasy hockey leagues. Theodore was drafted in only one of them, Varlamov in everyone of them. I can’t find a way to fit Theo on my roster in any of the leagues, but there are several teams who could.

Are the “experts” really expecting Varly to get the job?

Yup, pretty much.

Evgeny Kuznetsov hams it up as he joins the Russia men's national team for the "Sweden Games" leg of the Euro Hockey Tour in Helsinki, Finland.

There's a bit of controversy as their game against the Finns is scheduled to be played in Helsinki's outdoor Olympic Stadium.   Where the daytime temps are currently approximately minus-15 degrees Celsius, with periodic heavy snow.

This interview with head coach Zinetula Bilyaletdinov is fascinating, as he frets about the weather and especially when the reporters press him on the leaked reports that Kuznetsov will be centering the top line for Team Russia, just weeks after his 20th birthday.
