Will he be coming over next season? I feel that is what is best for his development at the moment.
 
The guy is one of the best players in the MHL, and plays no time on a team he'd probably be one of the best 6/9 F on that can't "afford" to play him because every win matters.They don't have a VHL team besides an affiliate that's like 2000km away, meaning it was a death sentence in the org to go there.

Very excited to see what he can do in a league that he can be challenged in. I've been calling for this or a change in org since the end of last season because we knew this was coming.
 
Can't always look at G/A for a young player like this in the KHL.

Hopefully they can sign Hirvonen soon too. I'd like to get him and Niemela over to N America sooner rather than later

Good MHL numbers, hasn't really done anything in the KHL though. Boom or bust kinda guy.

Great analysis. Check his teammates stats in the MHL this season now, and then check his TOI in the KHL.

+skater, +passer, +shooter. Plays all 3 forward positions. He's one of the most talented prospects in the org that hasn't had to face competition on his level basically since his D-1. It's very exciting having this guy come over.
 
Good. This year was going to be wasted for him just shredding competition he's clearly better than.

They wouldn't give him a legit shot at the KHL and Sibir doesn't have a VHL team. At least this way he gets to graduate to a higher level of competition.

he's also not a typical pure skill type. He has a good amount of defensive upside
