LW Dmitry Buchelnikov - Vityaz, KHL (2022, 52nd, DET)
- Thread starter Kshahdoo
- Start date
He's elevated his game in a big way. He has a wicked shot but is also showing a level of creativity and awareness I did not see in his game previously. I suspect he'll make the jump in a big way in a year or two, depending on if he can get out of his current contract.
I'm sure his plans are all about NHL. He just needs some seasoning in the KHL. So I think, it's another season, and then he's ready to jump over the pond.

Redwings need to do everything they can to get him over to the US as fast as possible.
He's under contract in the KHL until June 1, 2026, so I think it's unlikely he comes over any earlier than that.
Do you think that they will? I'm not familiar with his situation, or any precedent with similar situations.
