Russia
Arsenii Sergeev
An athletic, technically strong goaltender.
Arseni Gritsyuk
A pest that will drive opponents nuts and he can create offense for himself out of nothing at times. There is an upside if patient.
Alan Shaikhlislamov
A powerful straight line winger, who has a heavy shot and quick release.
Mikhail Gulyayev
Undersized but dynamic puck moving defenseman who defends well despite his physical limitations. Could grow into a serviceable top-four defender but needs a tryout on special teams.
Ilya Nabokov
A positionally-sound and controlled netminder who put up excellent results in a full-time KHL role at 20 years of age.
Maxim Shabanov
A small, shifty player who can feather passes through the seams or shoot the puck through small targets. High upside player who carries some risk.
Gleb Trikozov
Well-rounded, intelligent offensive player with a heavy shot and good vision. Has the potential to develop into a solid middle-six forward in the NHL.
Kirill Dolzhenkov
A massive winger with questionable decision-making and defensive play, he needs to learn how to utilize his size correctly. Has a great shot and solid offensive instincts.
Prokhor Poltapov
Energetic forward who plays at a high pace. Has enough skill to grow into an effective middle-six NHL forward.
Roman Bausov
Big, physical, smooth skating defenseman that projects to be a penalty killer. Could have value in multi-cat leagues that use hits. Needs to keep developing offense.
