Russia
Nikita Popugayev
Speedy middle-six winger with size
Kirill Ustimenko
He is a good fallback to give a longer look in the off-chance that both Hart and Sandstrom fall through, still years away from being an NHL fixture though.
Valentin Zykov
Rugged multi-category middle-six winger with scoring upside.
Maxim Letunov
Lanky centerman with bottom- six upside if he can show pro consistency
Nikita Scherbak
Scherbak is a strong forward who has made significant development since arriving in North America. The Russian winger projects as a scoring-line winger
Ivan Morozov
He has all of the tools to become a regular in the NHL, but his offensive upside is still questionable as to whether he can become a top-6 talent.
Sergei Shumakov
Shumakov improved his scoring in the KHL every season since entering the league in 2012-2013. He has the skill to be a top six winger but needs the opportunity to produce. Likely is more of a line complimentor than a line driver
Vladislav Kotkov
Big and powerful winger with decent offensive skill-set. Potential middle-six winger.
Pavel Koltygin
Offensive center with good puck skills and a good shot. Needs to work on his skating and defensive play to reach the NHL.
Bulat Shafigullin
Displays a sixth sense for scoring but his vision and playmaking will need some polish. Could be a sleeper.
