Rookie goalie
Simeon Varlamov is 20 years old and doesn't speak any English, in just Russian. I think the Washington Capitals are going to want to get him to English immersion classes very soon, because I could see this kid playing in the NHL for some time. It also doesn't look like he needs a razor very often.

Sadly not until 2010. I'm worried he won't make it to campus. He was already considered the best goalie in his college class. But now I have to believe he's the top goalie off the board in the 2010 Draft.
ReplyDeleteI'm worried his NHL team is going to point out that we'll have a senior goalie coming back and that he could play a lot more games in the OHL or AHL...
If he makes it though...man. That kid is a flat out stud.
Yeah he is big and positionally really good.
