I was in Beijing last year (12 timezones away). The jetlag os brutal.
1 timezone = 1 day of recovery. I'd be surprised if Yak and Nuge were at 100% when the season starts.
I don't see it being a problem. Professional hockey players are very good at adjusting their time schedules (although, admittedly it's usually not as big of a change as from europe), and if you do lots of travelling, jetlag is a much smaller problem than for the average folk. Considering there is still like 11 days until the season starts, they should be fine. Might be a tad off for the first day or so of camp, but that's it.

It really isn't too bad if you prepare yourself, I've traveled back and forth between Perth (same timezone as Beijing) and Edmonton a few times. Melatonin is great for resetting your clock.

I don't know it always depends on the person, some people feel it some don't.
Edmonton Oilers
Oh hey, Nail — Welcome to Edmonton! Yakupov arrived at the airport tonight and is expect to practice with some of his Oilers teammates tomorrow morning at Rexall Place.
isnt working out supposed to help with jet lag anyway? so maybe a good hr long skate for these guys will be a good thing bond and fight the effects sort of thing
Nail gets into town BEFORE RNH going to prove that Russians are far more trustworthy than people from Vancouver.
Seriously though this tweet made me just as happy as the lockout's over one did. Now I just need the arena deal to get done for a good news week on twitter.
The Yak is Back ! So happy to hear he got here, it was a big surprise before Nugent-Hopkins. I didn't want him spending too much time with those other pesky Russians.
