Russia
Timur Mukhanov
Diminutive forward with outstanding skating ability and good offensive vision. Lack of size and strength could hold him back, but he has the skill to drive offense at the pro level.
Artur Akhtyamov
Strong positional netminder with good reflexes and compete level.
Ruslan Khazheyev
An aggressive goalie for his size, Khazheyev loves to use his strong skating ability while in the net to move from post to post. Could stand to be more conservative while in net. Projects to make the move to North America within the next 2-3 years
Vyacheslav Peksa
Lean, athletic goaltender who relies on his reaction time and positioning to stop pucks. A long-term project who has displayed some upside early in his career.
Vadim Zherenko
Zherenko is a tall goalie, who uses is height and is athletics abilities to stop the puck. Not the best technical goaltender but always makes a great effort to make saves.
Arseni Koromyslov
Koromyslov has the raw tools to be a useful defenceman at the next level, likely lower down the lineup. He skates well and has a big frame, also possessing good puck skills which all combined makes him an effective transition player. As of right now, his offensive potential seems limited but if he can refine his game and add to his toolkit, that could possibly change.
Artemi Kniazev
An aggressive, explosive skating defenseman that lacks size with good puck-moving skills. While not an elite offensive contributor, he can chip in when called upon. The upside is limited.
Mikhail Berdin
Has great tools and sense for the game, definite NHL potential.
Dmitri Samorukov
Potential to be a well-rounded second-pairing defender that can be relied on to play in all situations effectively.
Bogdan Konyushkov
Konyushkov exudes skill and creativity, and plays with enticing physicality despite being undersized. If he ever comes to North America, he could be a top-four NHL piece.
