Talk:Evgeni Nabokov

Nationality
I thought it was not possible to have a second citizenship for Kazakhstanis? I doubt he ever had Kazakhstan citizenship at all, only Soviet and later Russian, but that needs to be checked out. After the Russia-Canada game on 2-24-2010, Evgeni Nabakov surrendered six (6) goals in under 26 minutes. He was replaced by Ilya Bryzgalov 4:15 into the second (2nd) period. During the second (2nd) intermission, Evgeni Nabakov went outside to have a smoke. He never returned, if you see him you are encouraged to call the San Jose Sharks. They are tired of playing Tim Greiss. San Jose is offering a reward for any information aiding in the recovery of their star goalie. However Vladimir Putin is offering to double the San Jose Shark reward for any information aiding in the "saving" of Mr. Nabakov. True- and why list him as "Russian of Kazakhstani descent"? He's an ethnic Russian. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.169.16.167 (talk) 22:19, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

International play table
Why are his stats from the 1994 World Cup not included in his career international totals? Gentgeen (talk) 07:57, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Nicknames
Saving these here so they can be worked into the prose. John -Djsasso (talk) 03:30, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Playing Style
Is it worth mentioning that Nabby uses a profly style of goaltending (ie butterfly but with additional moves like pad stacking) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.226.123.106 (talk) 03:11, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

pad stacking has nothing to do with profly. the difference between butterfly and profly is that when you drop into the profly you twist your legs more so that your pads make a 90 degree angle with the ice. higher risk of injury, but MUCH more protection of the net. every goalie in the NHL uses it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.255.58.85 (talk) 01:50, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

Famous relations?
Just curious: does anyone out there know if Evgeni Nabokov might be related to the writer Vladimir Nabokov, author of "Lolita" and other light classics? Since the names are spelled identically, I thought it was worth asking. beerslayer (talk) 18:50, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

Chronological playing career
This article is difficult to follow in its current format. It would read so much better if it were organized chronologically. Onthegogo (talk) 22:31, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I merged the "Contract" section into the playing career section which puts everything into a more Chronological order. I didn't notice anything else out of order but I might have missed something.--Mo Rock...Monstrous (leech44) 18:07, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

New York Islanders section
I believe the article doesn't fully outline the problem, specifically 1. why he was able to be claimed off waviers (because the NHL doesn't consider the KHL to be a pro league, and treats it the same as if he had been playing for a minor league team) and 2. why it was such a problem (if I remember correctly, he said before the islanders claimed him that if anyone claimed him off waviers he would not play for them) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.255.58.85 (talk) 01:53, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

His contract was tolled by the Islanders. Yet he's depicted as a free agent. Is there a reason for this? He's on their roster.69.117.15.196 (talk) 00:25, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I believe it's the relative confusion surrounding the situation such as being listed as a UFA on TSN. Feel free to be bold and fix it/add the tolling out info to the pros if you have a ref it would be even better.--Mo Rock...Monstrous (leech44) 00:51, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

The NHL webpage has him listed as an Islander. Free agents are not listed with a team. I suggest that he be called an Islander instead of a free agent. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.15.47.62 (talk) 04:08, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

Redirect needed
A common transliteration of his name is Yevgeniy Nabokov -- There should be a re-direct from that. As it is now, Yevgeniy Nabokov simply says there is no entry. Kdammers (talk) 09:30, 13 November 2017 (UTC)
