Prospect Info: [2023 - 110th] Bogdan Konyushkov (KHL - Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod)

[Egresch]

Even if you take out Hutson, Bogdan and Engtrom, Habs d propespects poll would still be amazing.

Best U21 defenseman in NCAA, KHL and SHL sounds good

 

[Favster]

The fact that he is right handed is huge. Feels like we are getting all the dmen these last couple of drafts.

Off topic but he is more likely to be left handed.

Which is why I want the term to be RD or RSD vs RHD.

Wow, now that I understand what you mean I realize that's actually quite a bit more off-topic than I initially thought it was...

How does he look compared to Romanov at that age?

Romanov was stronger on his skates and played a more physical game but left Russia at 20, Bogdan will soon be 21 so it s apples and oranges.

He will only be 21 at December. He is 20 years old right now.

Yes 21 sorry, nonetheless he should have been drafted in 2021 so he now enters D+3, Romanov left after D+2

If he become half as good as Romanov is a big win for us. We got a 13TH pick for him.

Right Shot

And it means LHD would be LSD.

So extra lulz

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

Let's get him out of his contract ASAP

Let's get him out of his contract ASAP

No need for him to do that. He’s developing well in Torpedo with tons of minutes, plus it’s not like we need him now.

Nor are we allowed to

 

[BenchBrawl]

He's like a mix of Jagr and Nadal.

 

[26Mats]

Let's get him out of his contract ASAP

especially after tonight's preseason game. we may need him more now than in the future when Mailloux, Reinbacher, Engstrom, and Hutson are ready.

 

[Scriptor]

We might well be trading yet another D by 2026-2027 in order to make room for an NHL ready, 24-yr-old, top-4 quality RHD that might just end applying on the third pairing, behind Reinbacher and Mailloux? What about Engstrom, that should also be competing for a spot on RD (as a lefty)?

The future on D is so bright, we'll have to wear shades.

Hopefully, Matheson isn't injured and we can see him play at a higher level that would return a top-end forward in a trade before his contract is up.

Guhle, Hutson, Xhekaj, Engstrom, Trudeau and Harris are all LD candidates that will make Matheson expendable, especially if the return solves a need up front.

 

[Team_Spirit]

Torpedo = best KHL team

Good vibes only

 

[CHwest]

Bogdan in a habs jersey!

Legs look a little thin, bust.....

We could have easily had Luneau instead of Mesar last draft, I'm still mad about that one. But yeah, Hutson/Engstrom was ok.

Looks like an AHL personality LOL bust.

I don't know about that, besides being a protege of Igor Larionov, the following quick bio facts should generate at least 5-6 journalist fluff pieces eventually

RD Bogdan Konyushkov - Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod, KHL (2023, 110th, MTL)

In this year's draft Canadiens picked an intriguing young right-handed defenseman and here I obviously mean Bogdan Konyushkov aka B.K.. He had a great debut season in the KHL, and off the ice he wears glasses, goes to theaters and reads Albert Camus - should be enough of reasoning to start a...

He's smaller than Hutson ...

 

[TT1]

i prefer taking the homer spin route, that just means he has way more upside

Look forward to Mudryk saying it somewhere between 500-1000 times like Arber with costco
