Alexei Emelin


Recommended Posts

I'm hoping if Emelin somehow gets over here, with his pro experience, it won't take too long,

looks like Habs found a way sign Yemelin, who is still under contract in Russia.

The Canadiens thought they would have to wait a bit longer to sign Yemelin because he had two years remaining on a contract with Lada Togliatti in the Russian Elite League, but the team has reportedly found a way around that detail.

EMELIN CLOSE TO SIGNING?!

CJAD SPORTS HAS LEARNED Alexei Emelin is close to agreeing to a multi-year deal with the Canadiens, and making the jump to the NHL. Emelin and the Canadiens have reached a financial agreement, according to agent Todd Diamond. All that remains is for Emelin to agree to the commitment to come to North America.

This is good news however it is not official yet. If Emelin does come over is there a chance he will be in uniform? I hope so because if he can move the puck like Markov he would fit nicely on the second defenceman pairing.

I sure hope Gainey does not look at Yashin though.

Pat Hickey says Yemelin is on his way, and could be wearing the CH in october...

'high five!....alright'

*returns high five* great news. And to answer someone elses question about Emelin, I believe Emelin is older than valentenko and plays a much rougher game so i believe if any, Emelin would get the call before vals. Comon guys now we need to start thinking up nicknames! My votes in for Vals :P, or Tanko lol.

Im knida hoping we can think up funny original nicknames, instead of sweetining up their names. Like play with the fact that Vlentenko sounds like Valentine.

Pavel 'Lonely' Valentenko

'No' Valentenko

Pavel 'The Lovebird" Valentenko

Pavel "Jack Valentine" Valentenko

Plus, I've always wanted a hockey player to mimic "Shoeless" Joe Jackson, so how about:

"Skateless" Pavel Valentenko

actually i think it works better like: "Skateless" Chris Higgins

I'm gonna call him Vincent Valentine from FF7. That game was badass.

When he gets a hit or when he gets hit. Cuz coming up with a funny way of describing a hit on one of our players isn't cool :P
