LD Viktor Antipin (2011 undrafted; signed by BUF)

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

10 goals, 10 assists in 40 games +9 played in KHL all-star. Just a rookie.

Senators rumored to be close to signing him after Gonchar allegedly put in some good words about the organization.

I hope Murray can grab him. We'd have quite the set of young defensemen if you add him to the mix.

contract with Magnitogorsk until 30.04.2014

Man, what I wouldn't give for him to sign with the Flyers next year.

From Friedman's 30 thoughts:

24-year-old Viktor Antipin (also a lefty), is expected to join Buffalo. If that is the case, the Sabres won a bit of a recruiting battle, with Calgary, Chicago, Columbus and Pittsburgh all poking around.

so...is he good? any scouting reports?

Right name, but probably not the Murray you were hoping for.

Well technically Tim Murray was with the Sens at the time too as Assistant GM so he probably knew a lot about this guy already back then.

 

[MaxV]

Interesting.

Hope him luck. He has offensive skills and works hard, but size might be a concern.

Antipin made the KHL All-Star Team of the season and reportingly is just days away until he signs with the Sabres.

 

[Paxon]

Officially signs with the Sabres

What a long journey this was.
