Fantasy Summary
An imposing skater that can play both forward and defense, Gorbunov skates well for his size, and as he continues to refine his game, could be an excellent bottom-six piece who can add points and penalty minutes.

July 2024 – Gorbunov’s draft year numbers may look subpar but there is more to the story than just what they show. Standing at 6-5, Gorbunov has an NHL frame and also has the benefit of being one of the youngest players from the 2024 draft class, being less than a week away from being eligible for the 2025 draft. He split time both as a forward and as a defenseman being an all-around utility player for Belye Medvedi Chelyabinsk. He skates decently for his size and will need to make that a strong point in his game if he wants to stick at the highest level but with such a raw player, there is loads of intrigue on what is to come for him.
