I hope we accutally give him a shot, and this isn't another Kovar/Golyshev situation

It's a huge sign for Islanders! Congrats!

Tsyplakov is a great 2-way power forward with a good skating. He can play with the same effectively in 5x4 and also in a 4x5. So he has a possibilities to be a great player in the 3rd or 4th lines or even in the 2nd line.
Last year in Spartak Moscow he provided 145 hits in +-70 games. It's the second result in the team.
So he is a really great player.

But he isn't too strong mentally. He can get "stupid penalties" at important moments of the match.

Late bloomer with one ok season and one great season. Good physical game (especially near the goals during pp), a quite fancy shot. He is ok with spending time proving that he deserves to make the team (was under pressure for a while). Has been consistently evolving over the past couple of years. One major drawback is that he likes taking stupid penalties. Definitely needs to be more disciplined. Nice addition for the Isles.

Vpered Spartak!

Chances are he's just a 4th liner, but that's worth a try
