Here's a quick scouting report on him if anyone is interested. Would love to hear your thoughts!

Great video man, loving these short but quality scouting reports on some not as well know prospects! I love the skill this kid has just I felt like he was pretty careless with the puck sometimes. If he works on his game (specifically decision making) and gets stronger there is no reason as to why she shouldn't be an NHL player one day. I'd love to see him play in the KHL next year and come in as an overager.

In simple terms, the former version is how every Russian speaker would read his name. The second (current) version is how it would read in Belarussian which is closer to Ukrainian than Russian and, although it is an official language of Belarus, it's rarely actually used anywhere.
 


Glad for this guy! I don't know much about the Belarussian league but I thought he was done for after seeing his points total.

Still liked him a lot back at the Habs training camp, so the Stars must have liked what I've also liked :). He reminded of of a young Samsonov.
 
Is there any update on this player?

He only played 8 AHL games this season.
Was he injured?
