Russian update

A couple things regarding two of the Kings’ prospects, ’08 draft picks Viacheslav Voinov and Andrei Loktionov…

In a story in the Chronicle-Herald, Willy Palov, who covers the QMJHL’s Halifax Mooseheads, writes that the Kings are expected to release Voinov to play for Russia in the World Junior Championships, and afterward might send him to juniors. That would seem like a curious move, since Voinov seems to be earning solid reviews in Manchester.

Are Voinov, Demers coming back to Q after Christmas?

Also, Loktionov has been out of the lineup for the OHL’s Windsor Spitfires, according to The Windsor Star. Loktionov has a sprained knee and came to Los Angeles for tests, but he’s expected to be back in the lineup in a few days.
