During the draft you could have ended up in Toronto or with the Islanders...
Of course, I've thought about that and about what it would have been if i was there. Also considering that many 20-year guys are already playing twenty minutes a night there. Of course I think about it and it makes me feel bad.
Just a random, nothing quote I found about Filatov after a month or so playing in the KHL. Obviously, his behaviour is flaky, but Toronto's "rebuild" era isn't going unnoticed amongst European prospects.

After the first match you wrote me that hockey here is fun. Why?
- Many things are organized in a different way. In America the rinks are a lot smaller. And thus the game is tougher, more aggressive. There is less space to show your worth. Here it’s like playing at the airport. There is a lot of space and at first I wasn’t used to.
Suck it up, buttercup. Doesn’t sound very truculent to me: “Oh, I need room to show my worth, I don’t like tough aggressive hockey.”
