Picking Up My Traktor And Going Home

As if losing to Calgary on Saturday wasn't enough; now Alexei Mikhnov's heading back to Russia. What a week. Some will likely argue that he didn't work hard enough to earn a spot on the roster. My own take is that he wasn't placed in a situation where he could succeed. Then again, that's happening to a lot of prospects in the Oilers organization this year, isn' it?

So long, Traktor Boy. So long...

Comments:

If the Oil had their own farm team would they have been better able to adapt him to North American Hockey?

For that matter, would Schremp have been benched for 3 games recently if it was an Oiler farm team instead of a Pittsburgh farm team?
 


5 months and he's packing it in already? WHAT A QUITTER!

I don't want any player on the Oil that quits this soon after not getting spoon-fed an NHL job...
