Maxim Mayorov
A massive, deliberate, and calculated goaltender.
Yuri Ivanov
The youngest goalie in his draft class features sound positioning, footwork, and athleticism.
Nikita Shcherbakov
With an ideal frame for an NHL defensemen, Shcherbakov is a detailed oriented defender with good puck moving ability and flashes of offensive upside.
Dmitri Ivchenko
A mature, technically refined goaltender with a wide butterfly flare and reliable tracking.
Dmitri Borichev
Big, athletic Russian netminder whose calling card is high-end puck tracking and a quick glove. The early favorite to be the first goalie off the board in 2026, with the usual MHL-sample caveat attached.
Yaroslav Matyev
Big, mobile-for-his-size left-shot defenseman and a long-term project, already with KHL exposure at 16 but a raw offensive game. Fantasy value is negligible barring real development, the deepest of fliers.
Matvei Kotkov
A lethal shooter who finds quiet ice, lacks strength.
Vladimir Proskurin
A speedy, athletic goaltender who has made significant strides in control and structure.
Semyon Frolov
A netminder boasting pro size, athleticism and quickness.
Yegor Yegorov
A decent goaltender who has struggled since being drafted. His strongest asset is explosiveness from post to post, and his ability to jump out to improve his positioning. He will need to work his way up the Russian hockey system before coming to North America. A long-term project that will need to reach his next level to have an NHL future
