Ilya Ivantsov at eliteprospects.com

Isn't a high ranking kid, but I saw him a lot in the MHL, and he's going to be good. Smallish, but creative and good defensively, a solid skater as well. He looked very good along with Michkov in the MHL.

Quite a few teenagers doing very well in the VHL this year, it's actually quite surprising. Not an easy league to score in at the best of times.

Traded to Severstal after his loan there expired.

Looks like he extended with Severstal until the end of 2025/26.

In his last year of draft eligibility, he is second on Severstal with 13 assists in 27 games as a 20-year-old.

He is a bit undersized and signed through 2025-26 but does he have the potential to be a Mats Zuccarello-type playmaker? Does a team take a late round flier on him next summer?

Last year of eligibility. Is he draft worthy?

Went undrafted in his last year of eligibility.
