Viggo Gustafsson
A reliable defensive specialist who moves well and has bottom-pairing upside.
A reliable defensive specialist who moves well and has bottom-pairing upside.
Smart defensive player who has decent playmaking potential. Needs to work on using his shot more effectively.
A power forward with soft hands but perhaps a limited offensive ceiling at the next level.
A versatile bruiser that can hold his own on offense and defense. Needs to develop further to stand out from the pack.
Diminutive but quick and athletic Russian goalie. His quickness and agility makes up for his short stature, and early results in the KHL look fantastic. Time will tell if he makes the jump to North America.
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.
A large defenseman that can skate well and shut down opponents at a high level. His offensive and transition game are in question but considering his strong skating foundation Shuravin could develop into a competent middle-pairing defenseman who can pitch in offensively.
Do-it-all top-nine winger with physicality and a scoring touch
Offensive-minded defenseman with sharp skating and a higher-than-average hockey IQ.
A shifty, intelligent forward that can punish unsuspecting defensemen with his shot
