Maxim Pestushko & Yakov Rylov

Anyone know much about these '85's? Maxim Pestushko plays for Neftekhimik and Yakov Rylov plays for Dynamo on defense in his rookie season. Looks like he's listed at 5'10 143 is that correct? Pestushko is a forward, but what position does he play? I'll get to see these two play, just wondering what kind of players they are.

Yes, according to HC Dynamo site Rylov is 5'9 and 143.

Yakov Rylov is small guy but he plays big. I like him a lot. Yakov plays in all situations and looks very consistent even in PP and SH. I like his style of physical play. There is no great open ice hits in his game but he plays very hard. I can assume (from what I’ve seen) that Yakov is the best slot cleaner ;) among young D's in RSL.

Can’t help with Pestushko.

I could advice you to turn you sight on Konstantin Romanov. Very good kid. I've seen two games with him. Great player to watch and he plays like power forward. Doesn't afraid to drive to the net, hits big guys and has soft hands.

Thanks. I didn't see the games yet, but I will as I have someone taping games for me when possible. I'll keep an eye on Romanov as I'll have at least 2 Dynamo games.
