Russia
Artyom Duda
Offensive-minded defenseman with size and skill. Efficient as a power-play quarterback and a great decision-maker with the puck. Defending backwards is a work in progress, but could crack a top-four.
Danila Yurov
Intelligent two-way winger who competes hard and plays a physical game. Has all the makings of a reliable top-six NHL forward.
Anatoli Golyshev
Golyshev is a skilled playmaker who makes quick, effective decisions with the puck.
Vladimir Grudinin
Undersized offensive defenceman with great mobility and puck skills. Needs to continue to mature physically but has the skill to reach the NHL.
Ilya Fedotov
Has the making of a power playmaking winger.
Ilya Kvochko
Intelligent and reliable center who displays solid awareness in all three zones. Needs to continue to hone his offensive game but has potential as a two-way, middle-six pivot at the NHL level.
Rinat Valiev
AHL defenseman.
Zakhar Bardakov
Sizable defensive forward with a knack for the front of the net. Can win puck battles and tip pucks efficiently, and has great upper- and lower-body strength. Offensive tools need refining.
Daniil Sobolev
Despite his small size Sobolev is an aggressive defender who is constantly engaged physically.
Roman Bychkov
Agile, puck-moving defenseman with good hands and an aggressive playing style. Boom-or-bust prospect.
