Barulin

What do you think of him and can he beat Marek Schwartz and Bacashihua as the top Blues contender for the Number one starter of the future

Personnaly I think he has an outside chane, he's got great reflexes and a really tough mental. The kid is good... but for some reason I don't know seems to have fall out of favor in many posters list :dunno:

I don't know what Barulin is doing this season. Last I heard (a week ago) he was practicing at home in Tyumen and evaluating his options. His agent is Bobby Orr, so if I had to guess, he will come over here and play here somewhere, but we'll see. I really did not like what happened last season with him.

If he comes to North America I think he'd have to play pro, cause I don't think he was drafted in the CHL foreing draft...or was he?
