I wouldn't and I don't want Burns : If Burns were playing in Minny where he had good stats then yes but since he's been in SJ his numbers aren't what they use to be

That's kool. I still want him badly because his size/talent is rare. He also has the ability to play a 2-way game AND score, which is rarer. While he is known to be the combination of Ovi/Malkin, there are just as many concerns with regards to his attitude which I found interesting of reads:

Nichushkin originally made NHL evaluators a little leery when he hinted he might stay in Russia for a few years before heading to the states. But he tried to clear up his intentions before the draft, telling RIA Novosti that he would leave his Russian club, Dynamo Moscow, for the NHL. “I've already made up my mind that I'm leaving,” Nichushkin said. “At Dynamo they've been pretty calm about it. I was told that I can leave if I want. There are no legal problems with that at all.” There is one caveat – Nichushkin says he doesn’t want to play in the AHL.

Nichushkin did make an appearance at the NHL Draft combine, but said he did absolutely no physical preparation for it so he wouldn’t burn himself out, telling RIA Novosti, “To be honest, I don’t care about these tests.” That decision didn’t sit well with some talent evaluators like International Scouting Services head scout Ross MacLean, who told CFRN-AM in Edmonton: “He shows up at the combine and acts very arrogantly and has terrible interviews and quits on a lot of the tests, and has a lot of teams saying, 'You know what? No thanks.'”
