Andrei Kuzmenko litterally dances the Defenseman and scores highlight reel goal
When Rick Tocchet took over, Andrei Kuzmenko was criticized for his conditioning and defensive play. The Russian scorer took matters into his own hands this summer and may have used unorthodox training methods, but from the pictures and how he's been lighting up the ice in the first few skates, it's paying off.
In today's practice, the Canucks' number 96 absolutely mocked the Defenseman and danced around him to score a magnificent goal:
''Andrei Kuzmenko showing his edge work & shot at the informal pre-camp UBC skate. #Canucks''
Kuzmenko will be hunting his previous mark. He scored 39 goals as a first year NHLer and it looks like he's given himself every tool he needs to beat it.
