Agreed on Kabanov. I have pretty much written him off. He’s going to have to ditch his dad if he has any hope of making it, and then pray a real agent will take him on. Then from there, well it will take a bit of a miracle. I still think he could turn out OK if he loses his dad and proves he wants to learn and play. I wouldn’t expect much of him now though if his progress has dropped.

Dads, let this be a lesson to you… if you missed your shot at living out your dream, don’t try and do it through your kid. Let him fail/succeed on his own, and you can sit back and watch, and later maybe reap some of the rewards.

chucker: I want nothing to do with this kid. He’s a waste of a pick in any round.

I'm moving towards that as well, especially now that I see the list of agents he's gone through. If all this is true about his father no thanks.

Racki: Interesting… more on Kabanov. Turns out that the problem isn’t Kirill, but we have another Carl Lindros on our hands: http://www.russianhockeyfans.com/prospects/agent-ilya-moliver-kabanovs-problem-is-his-father-204.htmlAlso, Kabanov isn’t as good as they once thought he would be… he hasn’t progressed well (possibly because of all the issues around him).

Dawgtoy: Ok, with Skinner ranked 34th and Tinordi 38th, I’m excited for the second round as well.

Yes, there are a lot of good guys in that round for the picking. I believe our 2nd round picks are going to make or break our draft.
