Sorovy, Malkin or Gonchar?

Who do you think will be the most productive player in the Olympics this year from the Pens team?

In my opinion Russia has too many Stars in their lineup.
Maxim Afinogenov 5-10 174 9/4/79
Pavel Datsyuk 5-10 189 7/20/78
Alexander Frolov 6-2 213 6/19/82
Alexander Kharitonov 5-8 176 3/30/76
y-Alexander Korolyuk 5-9 190 1/15/76
Ilya Kovalchuk 6-2 205 4/15/83
Alexei Kovalev 5-11 185 4/2/66
Viktor Kozlov 5-10 178 5/3/72
Evgeni Malkin 6-3 178 7/31/86
Alexander Ovechkin 6-1 200 9/17/85
Maxim Sushinsky 5-7 176 7/1/74
Alexei Yashin 6-5 209 11/5/73

I believe that Malkin won't get the ice time he would want with so many veterans in the lineup. What do you think?

I hope Sorovy has a great Olympics, I would love to see some more offense from him after break.

Surovy will most likely be a non-factor. I hope he does well though.

Man, the russians have a sweet team.

I don't relish or enjoy the canadian dominance in hockey...but I would love to see a canada/russia game were, say Rick Nash, scores a goal & dances around Ilya K.


Hope T Surovy enjoys his Olympic moment.
Those mountains in Turin/Turino are beyond beautiful.

Surovy = nonfactor. I'm glad he'll have the opportunity to chew on his mouthpiece in Italy, however. Too bad there's no medal for mouthpiece chewing, because Surovy would win the gold, silver, and bronze.

Malkin will get plenty of ice time. IIRC he was on a line with Ovechkin and Kovalev at the last World Championships.

YEah, but not all these guys played on the lineup at the World Champions.
