LD Magomed Sharakanov - Lada Togliatti, KHL (2023 undrafted)

[dyldude]

Really fun and creative defenseman. Great set of hands. Goes a little too crazy at times (coaches will hate him), but there's some potential here. 4 points in his first 3 games of the year.

Watched him recently. I'm skeptical of his potential. Size isn't great, skating isn't a huge strength, although he can change directions decently well. He's a slightly below average backwards skater, and his top speed is not great. He has good retrievals in the corners though, and thinks out of retrieval situations okay at this level. Challenges attackers but can be beat wide. He does have good hands, but often will just lose the puck trying to outdangle everyone. Not the best playmaker.

If you get him in the later rounds, he improves his feet a ton, he cleans up the messy turnovers, then maybe there's something there.

2 assists today. Looks pretty solid at the pro level. No Makar Khanin today, as well as some others. Not sure why

Extended in the Dynamo system for the next two seasons.

Loaned to Lada for the next season.

Sounds like a UFC fighter.

Imagine the ground game a guy named Magomed ShereKhanov must have.

This kid really impressed me this year. Took some big steps in the VHL. I'm really looking forward to what he can do in the KHL. I thought he should've easily been a pick. Montreal picked up his teammate, another overager Makar Khanin
