HARTFORD WOLF PACK TEAM BUILDING CONTINUES

By: Gerry Cantlon, Howlings HARTFORD, CT - The always difficult off-season of team preparation work for the entire New York Rangers organization, including the Hartford Wolf Pack, continues. The Rangers signed undrafted left-winger Sahil Panwar on Monday. The 6’0, 195-pounder was inked to a one-year AHL standard player contract and will start training camp in Hart City. Sahil, in the Hindu dialect, means "leader." He is the second South Asian background player the Wolf Paack have had on their roster. The first is now the assistant coach for the Toronto Maple Leafs, Manny Malhotra. Panwar, 21, just finished his junior career in the OHL. He played in 68 OHL games last season. He appeared in his first 34 games with the Peterborough Petes, registering 17 points with 10 goals, and was future Wolf Pack Brennan Othmann's teammate. Then, following a trade to the Hamilton Bulldogs, a former AHL city (just relocated to Brantford because of arena renovations next season), Panwar skated in 34 games and registered 52 points with 21 goals. He was named OHL Player of the Week twice. The first came from January 23rd through the 29th and then again from March 6th through the 12th. In 199 career OHL games between the Bulldogs, Petes, Flint (MI) Firebirds, and London Knights, Panwar amassed 124 points with 54 goals with 70 assists. The native of Mississauga, Ontario, migrated all over North America because of his father’s job. Panwar first was in Montreal, then San Jose, and then headed to Southern California. While there, he played in the LA Jr. Kings U-14/U-16 teams under the guidance of former Wolf Pack great Derek Armstrong. He played with Quinn and Blake Emerson, the twin sons of ex-Hartford Whaler Nelson Emerson. The Henderson Silver Knights, Brendan Bisson, skated with Panwar, who has a younger brother Jordan, an incoming freshman at Colorado College (NCHC). Both are sons of NHL player agent Pat Bisson, a coach, and founder of organized hockey in Southern California. Calgary Wranglers (AHL) goalie Dustin Wolf, last year’s regular season Les Cunningham MVP, was with them as well. Panwar had just three points with two goals in four OHL playoff games with the Bulldogs. A year ago, he had 19 playoff games with the Firebirds with seven points, his only other junior playoff experience. He also recently attended the New York Rangers 2023 Development Camp as a free-agent invitee. Panwar was a depth signee who will likely be sent to the Rangers' organizations' newly announced Double AA affiliate, the Cincinnati (OH) Cyclones. As of now, the team has 24 roster spots allocated. Three more players have signed overseas, making it a total of 48. Sam Anas, formerly of Quinnipiac University (ECACHL), the defending national collegiate champions from the Calder Cup champion Hershey Bears, signs with Dynamo Minsk (Belarus-KHL). Andy Andreoff and his 37 goals leave the Bridgeport Islanders to sign with Sibir Novosibirsk (Russia-KHL). Three of the last four AHL European signees were with Russian-based KHL teams. The ongoing war of unprovoked aggression/invasion of Ukraine, human rights violations galore and state-sanctioned kidnapping and mysterious deaths occur, was supposed to be off-limits by the NHL and, by extension, the AHL, but evidently, not so much. Another signee to Belarus is ex-Pack Kodie Curran, who leaves Metallurg Magnitgorsk (Russia-KHL) signs with Dynamo Minsk. Zach Fucale was another member of the Calder Cup champion Hershey Bears, joining recent signee ex-Pack/Ranger Vitali Kravtsov and goalie ex-Pack Adam Húska, who Torpedo Novgorod just re-signed. Ex-Pack Ryan Sproul re-signs for a fifth year with Kunlun Red Star (China-KHL) and will likely play for their national team at the World Championship. Rearguard Logan Day, a very solid performer in Hershey’s championship Calder Cup run, is talking with AHL and KHL teams but will very likely re-sign with the Bears. One Bridgeport Islander forward is likely to play with the independent Chicago Wolves. Chis Terry, as well as another ex-Pack captain, and UCONN Husky (AHA) Cole Schneider, who was also last year’s captain in Milwaukee with the Admirals, heads down I-70. At its recent annual league meeting, the ECHL mandated a 32-team league to meet the NHL (long sought-after) equilibrium of 32 teams at the NHL, AHL, and ECHL levels. They were looking at Athens, GA, and another unnamed market. The league announced its 29th franchise with majority owners of Tim Tebow, the former football and baseball player, and Hodges Management Group, LLC., CEO David Hodges. They will play in South Lake Tahoe, Nevada, beginning in the 2024-25 season. The yet unnamed team will play at the brand-new Blue Event Center in the South Lake Tahoe District and will help ECHL teams in the Mountain Division, Idaho (Boise), Utah (Salt Lake City), Allen (TX), Kansas City (MO), Wichita (KS), Rapid City (SD) and Tulsa (OK). The NHL affiliation will be announced in February 2024. Tebow has been involved with ECHL as a minority owner with the Jacksonville Icemen, the former Double AA affiliate of the Rangers/Wolf Pack, and the Savannah (GA) Ghost Pirates under the aegis of Zawyer Sports and Entertainment, the operating company for all three entities. Tebow's athletic history dates back to high school when he won the Florida HS Class 4A title in 2005. He went on to Florida to play Division I football, where as a sophomore, he won the Heisman Trophy in 2007. He won National titles in 2006 and 2008 and was voted into the College Football Hall-of-Fame in January. Despite being a first-round draft choice, he had a short NFL career, and he never fit the scout's pre-conceived parameters. All he did was throw touchdowns. His pro career highlight came as a Denver Bronco. It was the first play in the OT win over Pittsburgh when he completed an 80-yard pass play-and-catch-plays to Demaryius Thomas for a 29-23 win on January 8, 2012. Tebow had unsuccessful tryouts with the Jacksonville Jaguars and New York Jets. Like Michael Jordan and Bo Jackson before him, he tried his hand at baseball. His inability to hit a curveball derailed his attempt to play in the major leagues. His minor pro ball career lasted five years. He played in the Mets' system, making it as high as their Double AA Eastern League team in Binghamton, and played against the Hartford Yard Goats. He ended his career at the Triple AAA level in Syracuse in 2021. He is one of the owners of the USL (United Soccer League) Jacksonville franchise. HARTFORD WOLF PACK HOME Read the full article

hey i was reading your post about evgeny kusnetsov and alexander semin (the friendship necklace one) and i got into hockey somewhat recently but i've heard/read some things about sasha and i was wondering if you could give me a rundown/what your perspective is? you mentioned cultural assimilation, but also social class, ethnic identity, ability, neurodiversity, and trauma and i was really curious what exactly you were talking about??

First, that’s cool you’re getting into hockey! How’s that going? I hope you’re having fun. Second…thanks for making me reread my old writing as we come up on the New Year ;)

That was one of my very first posts, and I think it reads like it—I definitely wasn’t much of a sports writer back then, and (I don’t think) I tell stories quite the same way now.

I don’t think some of those words I used mean much, except that I was angry. So I’d like to spell out what made, makes, me angry. The first half of this is stuff I’ve said before, more organized, with jokes. The second half is not fun, but it’s also something I think NHL fans have a duty to think about. So I want to try to talk about Lokomotiv.

Sasha Semin is the star and captain of a quite good, more fun KHL team. Today he was named to the All-Star team, actually. KHL All-Stars is a magical place where the players sing acoustic covers and routinely set things on fire, so hopefully they’ll let him bring his sword.

(I love the KHL)

Before that, he was the cool big brother of a generation of Russian stars. In the early 2000s the first post-Soviet young players were coming of age and working out what post-Soviet, now-Russian style hockey was going to be. In that moment we got two spectacular players: Sasha from Siberia, and Sasha from Moscow.

The Soviet style of play was supposed to be egalitarian—players skated the opposition sick and pass-pass-passed, always giving it to a teammate instead of taking chances, until whoever happened to have it had a sure shot. The Alexanders grew up in that style, and they grew up fuck-off strong. They started feeding off all their teammates’ passes and beginning to gun down goalies with one of two shots: Alex Ovechkin had the one-timer, and Alex Semin had the best wristshot in the game.

Did you watch Vegas’ magic season? Pull some clips of Wild Bill Karlsson. Imagine if he had upper body strength but was just as light on his feet. That’s how inexplicably electric young Semin was.

His and then Ovi’s performances at World Juniors were so explosive they convinced American businesses to risk money on something new. Semin was oldest, and the Capitals kind of sucked, so they got him first. Then a few years later they still sucked, so they got Ovi too. Then the two of them got Nicklas Backstrom and matching line promise necklaces and played really good hockey together for a number of years.

(If anyone would like 3,000 more nicer words about the above subjects, @ me)

A couple things shaped what happened after that:

▪ Semin’s unique wrister, twisted to be almost as hard as a slapper, is like spending every night downing jägerbombs with a shot of carpal tunnel. He seems to have chronic wrist and hand problems from inflammation, with apparent flare-ups that sometimes got rest and sometimes didn’t. So that’s a factor—not the only, but a—in why he had periods of poor shooting.

▪ Either because he never really went to school or just because he’s wired that way, Semin seems to suck at math.

▪ Ovi’s hot stick and the Sid Incident (Sidcident?):

In their first interview together, Ovi described him and Sid as “partners”, and Sid asked for Ovi’s shirt. But over the first few years the League swung from branding them as buddies to making money off a rivalry, and Don Cherry started a string of bitter conflicts with Ovi.

Local journalists who knew him wrote about seeing Ovi flinch in interviews. They described him starting to hesitate, pale, tired, doubling back over answers to make sure they were watertight. We now know from Tatyana Ovechina that he was spending a lot of nights on the phone back home with her, asking if he was letting everybody down.

Sasha, who’s basically that guy on twitter who found kittens in his sock drawer and adopted them all, but with little brothers, got protective. He told Russian media that he thought Sid was a good player, but not his favorite, and said that the way the League was pushing media attention could make someone a ‘star’ even if they weren’t that good. The phrase he used means “dead wood”, or boring, useless person. The grammar he used means something like “even if he were (ie, he isn’t)”.

I think this was objectively very funny. And I still hold that anyone saying the level of exposure Sid endured was good for him or anyone sounds like the stage parents on Toddlers & Tiaras.)

But people get protective of their person, and most won’t stop for a grammar lesson before deciding what they think something meant. There was a media blitz, mostly accusing Sasha of wanting the attention Sid got, which made sense, if you didn’t know Russian or two things about him—that he’s best friends with Alex Ovechkin, and that he’d only just started to practice English with local reporters after several years. If he were an egomaniac, he was bad at it.

From his reaction it seems like he hadn’t thought his comment was that wild, and wasn’t prepared for the backlash. Next time he talked to local reporters, he brought the translator back. Asked routine questions he’d been getting for a couple years, he flinched and turned to them to rehearse every word of his answer. Asked what was up with the translator, he said “I just don’t want to say the wrong thing.”

Although teammates like Mike Knuble, Jeff Schultz, Backstrom and Ovechkin kept talking about his personable, joking side, and we’d see it plenty in practice, he started insisting to reporters that he didn’t know English and that he was boring anyway, claiming “I’m just an ordinary person, just like everybody else. The only difference is I’m out there on the ice and that’s it. I’d just rather talk about hockey.”

–> Without math or English, Semin’s career depended on his agent, Mark Gandler.

Try not to depend on Mark Gandler.

As the Globe and Mail put it, “to many Canadian hockey fans, Mark Gandler is nothing less than the Prince of Darkness.”

Mark Gandler’s business was based on presenting himself as a friendly face to young Russian athletes, and pissing of NHL franchises. I’m pro-pissing off the NHL in general; my problem with Gandler is that if he was sincerely trying to get the best deal for him clients, he was bad at it..

When anyone talks about something Semin decided, they’re talking about what Gandler decided for him. Semin was honest with the media that he had no fucking clue what Gandler was asking for in negotiations. The Caps and Gandler couldn’t agree on anything, so while Ovechkin was locked down for life, Semin was only ever signed to one and two year bridge contracts, constantly up, his performance a constant subject of discussion and every wobble obvious.

Note: the following is the bit where I got angry and A. asked why the hell I was looking at photos of this and told me to go lie on the floor and do my butterfly exercises for a while.

One year Semin’s game really sucked. It didn’t help that Ovechkin was sucking too—they both got benched, Coach got fired, and still the Capitals just kind of sucked. Around the league, Russian stars were mostly fizzling. That was the 2011-2012 season.

On September 7, 2011, the airplane carrying the Lokomotiv Yaroslavl team, coaching staff, and four youth players had overrun the runway, struck a signal tower, crashed, and caught fire moments after takeoff. Every member of the team onboard was killed.

I can’t understand, so certainly can’t explain, how that day changed the community. I’m not trying to speculate too much on anyone’s personal situation, but to point out how much more profound it was than just some other league’s trivia.

I don’t think there’s a mainstream North American parallel for the hockey community in Eastern Europe. Players are raised in a small number of hockey schools, often at that time in dormitories like the one where Semin lived in Chelyabinsk. While young North Americans are quite strictly separated by age, the Russians are growing up with older and younger kids from the same school all around them. Older teens are encouraged to mentor younger ones—Kuznetsov’s attachment to Semin is endearing, but not really so weird. Stanislav Yarushin is several years older than Sasha, and he befriended him, and then down to Kuz. In a community like that, any one person is intimately connected to the others.

From the coaches to the rookies, someone from three generations across nine nations was killed in the disaster. Each of them was connected not only to their peers, but to players older and younger than them, and to the city that raised them. Every Russian, Czech, and Slovak in the NHL lost at least one person they knew deeply.

Just that spring, Kuznetsov won gold at World Juniors with a little clique of friends. Vladimir Tarasenko, Artemi Panarin, and Dmitry Orlov are stars now, and two of the others are dead.

Kuznetsov is the one draped in the flag. #14, with the awesome hair, smiling, is Danylo Sobchenko. #12, reaching up towards the cup, is Yuri Urychev. Urychev had been injured, and supposed to stay home the day of the disaster, but he asked to be allowed to fly with them, so he could cheer for his friends.

Tarasenko himself was born in Yaroslavl, and his father played for Lokomotiv; he knew even more of the team, and if he’d taken a hometown offer instead of signing with Sibir, he would have died that day too.

The thing about a loss like this is that it keeps budding with new losses. It hadn’t been a problem with the plane, or a freak accident. Over the following month a miserable investigation revealed that the airline had fudged documents, and the pilots just didn’t know what they were doing. So as well as losing friends, the younger players lost any trust that people in authority were going to keep them safe in the future.

After the disaster, Ovechkin, Semin, and Malkin had to hold their phones waiting while Alexander Galimov (a friend from nationals) was found with burns over 80% of his body, stabilized, transported, placed in a medically-induced coma and ventilated. He finally died five days later. The day he died Tarasenko and Kuznetsov and all the others got back on their own planes and kept playing, so the NHLers just had to keeping waiting up for them, too. Now Tarasenko and Kuznetsov have little brothers on those planes. They’re better fucking planes now, because the disaster changed Russian law, but they’re still not great.

In a grim way, Semin and Ovechkin were lucky, because they had each other. At the time almost no NHL team had as many Eastern Europeans as the Caps, meaning almost all the others were alone.

Of course it just wasn’t possible for the North American public to grieve with them the way that Europe did, but how quickly it was boxed away and forgotten as a factor in players’ lives just…sucks.

You don’t just grieve somebody when you lose them; people who aren’t sure what to say will say it fades with time, but what it really does is rise and fall in waves. You grieve them when you lose them, and again when you’re as old as they were and realize how insufficient it really was, and again, when you’re older than they’ll ever be, when you’re old enough to see children their age. Like injuring your wrist, you can get back to work, but never back to exactly what you were before.

Five years later, when Tarasenko scored his 100th goal, he dedicated it to Sobchenko and Urychev.

Most of a decade later, Alex Ovechkin wears the Lokomotiv crest on his chest protector, over his heart.

So if we know all that, we can start to imagine why they sucked at hockey.

Actually, after a slow start to the season, Sasha sucked the least of all the Capitals. Always a stronger possession player than Ovechkin, Sasha actually recovered after the Caps brought in Dale Hunter, who ripped up the Goals First, Goals Always game plan and tried to make Ovi play defense. Sasha ended the season with the best possession metrics on the team (yes, including Nicke Backstrom).

His goal-scoring didn’t recover, but that was because Coach Dale was basically treating him like Ovi’s security blanket, putting him on the second line with Mojo so Ovi couldn’t cuddle him until Ovi backchecked. Mojo (this is a Science fact) is not Nicke Backstrom.

The reason the Capitals traded Semin is they desperately needed to trade someone to make up for the team’s collective failures that year, he could be traded due to his shitty contracts, and he was worth trading.

I’m not actually angry the Caps traded Semin. It made sense. I am mad the Habs did, because it was one of many decisions made by Marc Bergevin coughing up a heavily-gelled hairball on a depth chart, but hey.

Sports is hard. I don’t mean that teams should keep players who aren’t playing the way that team needs them to out of sympathy. I mean that it’s possible to say that Semin or Ovechkin sometimes play badly without saying they don’t care. It’s possible to name a practical problem without making it a moral one.

Because when we see someone not doing what we want, and we make it moral, we say, “well gosh, I can’t imagine a reason why they aren’t jazzed to do what I want right now, so there can’t be a reason, they just suck,” we’re always wrong, because we miss shit!

In 2011, the common complaint that Russian players “don’t seem to care” went from boring to breathtakingly cruel.

It’s a collective failure of empathy, where a lot of us didn’t even know that empathy’s needed. How many NHL fans don’t know Lokomotiv existed? If we don’t even know what weight another person’s carrying, we can’t possibly judge them rightly!

The athletes we’re watching aren’t just cartoon characters for American consumption, who always act and react in easily-readable ways. They’re people with beliefs, behaviors, and problems which might be meaningfully different from what we’re personally familiar with and really hard to sympathize with.

But when we see someone struggling to do what we want them to, we have to wonder why, and look around to learn more about moments like this, and then offer empathy. I believe that if we have information, most people use it to be kind. So we really fucking need historical information.

I’m back on the floor and don’t have a closer, so here’s a picture of a cat with big mitts like Sasha. His name is Peppers.

Every now and then I see a post go around when someone learns what a KHL team’s name means, so I thought I’d put together a translated list. Like football in the UK, lotta KHL teams started among labor unions and factory workers, and then the baroque weirdness of Russian history happened to them, so all their names are gold.

I’ve taken some liberties with how pluralization etc works in favor of the spirit

Dinamo Riga The Riga Generators. (A dynamo is a machine that uses rotating coils and magnets to turn mechanical energy into electricity.)

Dynamo Moscow The Moscow Generators

Jokerit Helsinki The Helsinki Jokers/Jesters/Clowns

Severstal Cherepovets Cherepovets Northern Steel

originally named Stroitel, the Builders, and then Metallurg. Now they just use the name of their sugar-company. While most of these teams were founded by or or in reference to industries, Severstal is directly owned by Severstal, which is why we all have to look at this:

jersey design is my passion

SKA Saint Petersburg Sports Club of the Amy of Saint Petersburg, founded by military officers

Spartak Moscow The Moscow Spartans

CSKA Moscow Central Sports Club of the Army of Moscow, founded by military members

Dinamo Minsk you may be pickin up a theme

Lokomotiv Yaroslavl The Yaroslavl Trains

Slovan Bratislava The Bratislava Slavs

They did name their bald eagle mascot Harvy, though, which is pretty cool

Note: I originally wrote this some time ago with a joke about how the teams might have expired by the time I post it. Pour one out for Slovan, they’re in a happier(?) place in the Slovak League now

HK Sochi Sochi Hockey Club

Every team can be called “HC/HK ____” to differentiate them from the cities’ football teams. You could say “Slovan” or “HC Slovan” for clarity. Sochi forgot the ____.

Vityaz Moscow Oblast/Vityaz Podolsk The (Fairytale) Knights

The team currently plays in the city of Podolsk, outside the ring of the city of Moscow but still in Moscow Oblast, the larger province. They’ve moved around a bit in Moscow Oblast, although they’re settling in well now, so it’s not inaccurate to generalize that they’re from “Moscow”

A vityaz of bogatyr is a hero on a quest, akin to King Arthur’s chivalric knights. Founded by MMA fighters.

Ak Bars Kazan Kazan White Leopard

The team uses a snow leopard, but “ak bars” refers specifically to the coat of arms of Tatarstan, a legendary white cat with wings

Avtomobilist Yekaterinburg The Yekaterinburg Drivers

This might seem like a boring name, until you learn that it replaced a club named Dinamo Energija Yekaterinburg, the Generator Electricity

Metallurg Magnitogorsk Magnitigorsk Metalworkers (as in the English word ’metallurgy’) or we could translate more comfortably as Steelers, founded by steel mill workers.

Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk Nizhnekamsk Petrochemists, founded by petrochemical factory workers.

Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod The Nizhny Novgorod Torpedos

Traktor Chelyabinsk The Chelyabinsk Tractors.

Founded by workers in the Chelyabinsk Tractor Plant, this is the team people usually discover and giggle about a bit, which itself is fun, because this is a bait-and-switch boring name that’s actually got some intimidating heft behind it, because the Tractor Plant mostly didn’t make tractors. It made approximately 18,000 T-34 Chelyabinskaya tanks.

Admiral Vladivostok Vladivostok Admirals

Amur Khabarovsk Khabarovsk is the city, the Amur is a nearby river

Avangard Omsk The Omsk Vanguard.

The vanguard (from “advance guard”) is the leading edge of a military formation as they move into battle. American-English speakers seem to pronounce the name as “avant-garde”, which means exactly the same thing but has a real different connotation

Barys Astana The Astana Leopards

This is from the same root as Ak Bars, but without the “white” refers to a real snow leopard. I’m not sure the folks involved know this: hopefully they believe snow leopards are mythological animals

(The text is Cyrillic designed to look sorta like Arabic script)

Salavat Yulaev Ufa Ufa is the city, Salavat Yulaev was a folk hero/political leader/poet of Bashkiria in the 1700s.

Sibir Novosibirsk New Siberian City Siberias

Red Star Kunlun 北京崑崙鴻星 or Běijīng Kūnlún Hóngxīng

Hóng is red, xīng is star, they play in the city of Běijīng, Kūnlún refers to崑崙山 Kūnlún Shān. Side note but I've always likes this grammatical feature and the connotations of this word in particular because the way pluralization works, shān is anything from a lonely hill or whole range or, as you travel west into Central Asia, “THE WORLD IS MADE OF MOUNTAIN NOW”

so that’s the KHL

#KHL
