Posted - 11/17/2012 : 08:54:04 So, i'm surfing around Yahoo (Puck Daddy) and find this headline: "Check out this 'absurd, offensive, obnoxious' goal", and it's a reference to a Pavel Datsyuk tally earlier this month. So, i watch the video (clip below) and while it's nice, it's nothing that completely blows me away but what does is in the words that follow. Somewhere in the article, the writer alludes to the fact that Alexander Radulov is leading the KHL in scoring with 33pts in 24 games. Alex Radulov? Why is this guy so good "over there" yet such an inigma here? Maybe he ought to stay over there for good, something which is prob quite likely after his most recent return.
Anyway, here's the clip, see what you think, but i recall much nicer Datsyuk goals in the NHL than this one.....
