Fenxis 99 Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 wonder if the NHL will at some point move to a NFL cap model.. Link to post Share on other sites
Jason12 0 Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 I can't remember the name but The Score was talking about a black player who left the Russian league after something like 2 weeks because the racism was so bad. According to him people were throwing bananas on the ice and yelling at him the whole time, I cant see Emery being able to deal with that. Link to post Share on other sites

Once he gets his head straight he'll be back in the NHL. Link to post Share on other sites

According to him people were throwing bananas on the ice and yelling at him the whole time, I cant see Emery being able to deal with that.I read that somewhere today but can't find it..edit:Ray Emery should've called Anson Carter about experiences in Russia. Europe is pretty racist (NJ Devils Johnny Odya played while thousands of fans made gorilla sounds in Sodertalje!)to beging with but Russia is the worst.With Emery's temper he could end up in real trouble in Moscow which is serious partytown.I agree with James that Colorado should've taken him before Raycroft. I also agree that a year or two in Russia doesn't help your chances in NHL.Mika Noronen is still in Russia... Link to post Share on other sites
