LW Artur Kayumov - Lokomotiv Yaroslavl, KHL (2016, 50th, CHI)

[LastWordArmy]

A slick skater and extremely talented player who led the Russian U18 team in scoring this year. The knock on him is size, as well as the Russian factor. Where will he go in the draft?

Hawks just took him at 50. Did not see him ranked anywhere. Huge reach?

TSN had him at 68 I Think.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Yeah he was ranked at #68 by TSN

Slight reach but not a bad one in later half of 2nd round

Hope he works out for Hawks better then our last 2nd round Russian winger who I had high hopes for but didn't pan out (Igor Makarov)

Had a good pre-season and start of the season, but now got injured and is out at least until 20th of November.

Nope. Not even close. The KHL playoffs featured quite a number of young players. Kayumov was OK, but that's by far not enough to get a spot on the big team. He'd have to perform at Kravtsov/Tolvanen level to be even considered. And Kravtsov is not getting a call I bet.

keep it up kid!

 

[Atas2000]

Awkward skater...

 

[Caser]

That was a fancy move behind the net:

 

[Caser]

And that wasn't fancy at all:

 

[Kcb12345]

That's just awful. So embarrassing and awkward to see him try and pump up the crowd after doing something like that

He got 13 games suspension. Quite low for punching a ref.

 

[MaxV]

Was the punch on purpose? It looked like he was trying to punch one of the Finns but missed.

Anyway, he could have gotten a lengthy suspension for the hit itself.
