Vladimir Sobotka, The Eastern European Tank

[Fred Murtz]

Sobotka blowing up Suter. Made him look like a Kessler tumbleweed.

Clang clang!! stay off them trolley tracks.

[MPF24]

Always liked Sobotka. Who have his line mates been this season?

[Corto]

Frank and Nicky Sobotka were the real deal too, buddy!

...

But yeah, Sobotka's developed into a wanted commodity on the bottom lines.

[RussianGuyovich]

well now im confused, is he a trolley or a tank?

either one would be impressive tho, imo

[LightningStrikes]

One of my favorite non-Lightning players! So underrated...

[Brewsky]

Very underrated, great for the bottom 6, that clanky *******.

[SupremefartMachine]

It's Kesler, not Kessler. Tough name to spell, isn't it?

[Falco Lombardi]

Loved when we made the trade for him.

One of the guys that give our team the amazing depth we have.

[memoriesdk]

He's playing in the 4th line and does a great job there but he has the skill to be bottom line 2nd liner-great 3rd liner.

Hitch said that he's been the best Blues player so far this season. He can do it all. He's definitely one of the best if not the best bottom 6 forward in the NHL.

he was pretty good for the Bruins already, just no room for him.

[moolah3i4]

He is a wrecking ball bro!

[STL fan in IA]

My favorite player. If the nickname "little ball of hate" wasn't already taken, that would be Sobotka's nickname. He's a 5'10" wrecking ball who's defensively responsible who can also pop in a goal here and there as well. I love watching Vladi play!

[smitty10]

A top 10 bottom 6 player in the league, IMO. Always liked his game.

[klikkar]

Vladdy will always be one of my fav players.

[bruinsfan46]

Was never happy to see him go, Bruins just ran out of room in the line up at the time.

Yeah what country?

I loved Vlad when he was on the Bs. Ran into him in a bar in providence during his time with the PBs too; wasn't much of a talker (unsure if he even speaks English and barely did at the time).

Can I ask you Bruins fans what Warsofsky is up to? I know he was never a highly touted prospect

EDIT: Bahh, Erathian beat me to it.

[Qurpiz]

He will always be the guy who fought Duchene for me.

Duchene's only fight so far IIRC



But yeah, the guy deserves to be known for more than that, but that's the name-association for me.

[zachws6]

That John Scott hit was intense, being that Scott had the upper hand with the momentum and 500x larger in every way. Soby has been my favorite Blue Note since he arrived. Tarasenko is near tying that position though.
