How has he been doing?
Discuss the St. Louis Blues, the NHL, or whatever.

http://www.pjstar.com/stories/010708/RI ... FH.076.phpPeoria rookie Nikolay Lemtyugov, the highly skilled player NHL scouts project as a topsix forward at the next level, stunned both sides when, with Quad City holding a 2-0 lead, he pummeled surprised Flames defenseman Tim Ramholt in his first North American bout at 9:47 of the second period.
Ramholt ended up dropping to the ice and covering his face during the fight. The Rivermen roared on to score three goals in the next 10 minutes, including two from Jean-Guy Trudel.

"He (Ramholt) pushed me, so I waited, and he said OK so I fought," said Lemtyugov, speaking without an interpreter for the first time. "I hate defensemen. I like to score goals, and those guys block my shots, hit my stick, so I'm going to fight them when they push me. I hate 'em."

I remember that, I think it was Alex Burrows from Vancouver, i remember him uppercutting the guy when he was on all four's, that was awesome!OS wrote:That sounds like Dennis Wideman's fight where he just erupted out of no where in a scrum by the net and beat the crap out of someone.

Also scored in the shootout.
It might be hard to keep this kid out of the NHL next season...

This team needs more players who shoot the damn puck. There's so much offensive talent, just put it on goal and things will happen. Lemtyugov might just be on this team next year with Oshie, Berglund and Perron Part Deux. I envision magical things in the next 2 or 3 seasons.

Lemtyugov better be PERFECT defensively! Remember who we have coaching the Blues...glen a richter wrote:This team needs more players who shoot the damn puck.

[url]http://pjstar.com/stories/030408/DAV_BF ... 6.phpp.url]WEAPONOLOGY: Nikolay Lemtyugov is emerging as a real offensive weapon. Put him in a shootout, and he'll leave the goaltender flopping on the ice with an array of moves.
Let him near your net, and he'll torture defensemen who don't know whether to defend his shot or pass skills. Power play need a jump start? Put him out on the point and he'll crank in a 45-footer.
And he's the second-best rookie on the team. Julian Talbot reached the 20-goal plateau in Sunday's win at Rockford. Yes, veterans Jean-Guy Trudel and Mike Glumac scored goals and Marek Schwarz came up big in the nets.
But the Rivermen don't win that game without Talbot and Lemtyugov.
