Prospect Info: Mikhail Yegorov - pick #49 2024 NHL Draft

Watching the game last night, I feel like the shot totals for both teams were inflated. Neither goalie really made a huge save IMO.

This kid is huge, but I do think he's a bit slow post to post, and he is just a bit too active for my liking. But there is a lot of time to work on that. His attitude is amazing. Seems like he really loves the game, and that is more important than people realize. I could see him being the goalie version of Nico from an attitude perspective.

11-37-6 over the last season and a half with Omaha.

Had a sub 90% save percentage last year.

Playing on a bad team can kill a prospect, especially a goalie. Good thing he got out of there.

Sidenote: One of the 2 current netminders in Omaha is a 19 year old Jersey kid by the name of Daniel Moor. He's not an NHL prospect but I'm sure he'd like to play some college hockey for free. While playing for the Jersey Hitmen last year he posted a .924 save %. In 8 games with Omaha this season he's posting a 85% save percentage and a 6.5 GAA. That's a difficult cross to bear.

Not a Devils fan so he’s dead to me.

Yes, he was 10 when this 2016 article came out. And yes, I google NJ-area prospects favorite teams.

He’s going to Princeton.

I feel like nobody in the NHL who's from NJ is a Devils fan. Only one that comes to mind is Ross Colton. Apparently John Carlson wasn't one.
