http://www.pjstar.com/stories/010708/RI ... FH.076.phpPeoria rookie Nikolay Lemtyugov, the highly skilled player NHL scouts project as a topsix forward at the next level, stunned both sides when, with Quad City holding a 2-0 lead, he pummeled surprised Flames defenseman Tim Ramholt in his first North American bout at 9:47 of the second period.
Ramholt ended up dropping to the ice and covering his face during the fight. The Rivermen roared on to score three goals in the next 10 minutes, including two from Jean-Guy Trudel.
**snip**
"He (Ramholt) pushed me, so I waited, and he said OK so I fought," said Lemtyugov, speaking without an interpreter for the first time. "I hate defensemen. I like to score goals, and those guys block my shots, hit my stick, so I'm going to fight them when they push me. I hate 'em."
Lemmy is really finally getting comfortable. He has continued to adjust to the physical play and his conditioning has improved. Early in the game he took a cheap check in the corners digging for the puck. Should of been a cross check.
Rumholt took offense to the clean hip check that Lemmy dished out a few minutes later. Rumholt jumped on Lemmy like a beeootch. Lemmy snapped and dished out several haymakers stunning Rumholt. This fight was so out of character all the coaches were smiling and cheering him on. I have never seen the Rivs coaches applaud like they did. When the linesmen seperated them he gave the linesmen a shove as to say get out of my way. I think that's why he also got the mis-conduct on top of the 5 for fighting.
I have seen a lot of fights in Peoria. But this one was unique. A light bulb went off in Lemmy's head and he was in another zone. He stunned Rumholt.

That's the fight you are thinking of, but I think OS was talking about a different one that I didn't see on eBay, or at least my recollection was that he threw down "more" than this fight.

Re: Nikolai Lemtyugov?
He's definitely got some attitude to him, I remember Pierre Maguire talknig about how he wore 66 for his russian team because he thought he was comparable to Lemieux and he had the solid white skates. I'd admire his skill and confidence.

Lemtyugov with another goal tonight, his 16th of the season.
Also scored in the shootout.
It might be hard to keep this kid out of the NHL next season...

Re:
This team needs more players who shoot the damn puck. There's so much offensive talent, just put it on goal and things will happen. Lemtyugov might just be on this team next year with Oshie, Berglund and Perron Part Deux. I envision magical things in the next 2 or 3 seasons.

[url]http://pjstar.com/stories/030408/DAV_BF ... 6.phpp.url]WEAPONOLOGY: Nikolay Lemtyugov is emerging as a real offensive weapon. Put him in a shootout, and he'll leave the goaltender flopping on the ice with an array of moves.
Let him near your net, and he'll torture defensemen who don't know whether to defend his shot or pass skills. Power play need a jump start? Put him out on the point and he'll crank in a 45-footer.
And he's the second-best rookie on the team. Julian Talbot reached the 20-goal plateau in Sunday's win at Rockford. Yes, veterans Jean-Guy Trudel and Mike Glumac scored goals and Marek Schwarz came up big in the nets.
But the Rivermen don't win that game without Talbot and Lemtyugov.
