LATEST | Canucks posts pictures that truly show the effect Andrei Kuzmenko has on the team
It shocked the hockey world when Patrik Allvin won the Andrei Kuzmenko derby last summer. The Russian winger was coming off a strong season in the KHL and had made known his intentions to continue his domination in North America.
Kuzmenko crossed the ocean and had an immediate impact on the team. While his offensive apport was hard to miss, the forward's overall impact on the team has not gone unnoticed. It was noted on multiple occasions that his smile and enthusiastic attitude was contagious, and it only had positive effects on everyone.
The Canucks posted pictures today that truly represented the impact he had on every single one of his teammates:
''Who wouldn't want to be besties with Kuzy?''
After putting up an impressive 39 goals and 74 points in his first NHL season, Kuzmenko was awarded an $11M extension for the next two years. With all that positive attitude, can he manage another 70+ points season?
