W Maxim Beryozkin - Lokomotiv Yaroslavl, KHL (2020, 138th, EDM)

[Caser]

Who would you compare him to?

To me, he reminds me a lot of Viktor Kozlov. Both big forwards. Neither is fast but protect the puck well. Both more playmakers than scorers but can still score.

I don't know, iirc Kozlov was still a very competent skater and way more gifted athletically. Although not like I'm able to provide a good comparison, I'm just bad at that lol.

That was a hell of a pass!

No one is talking about him but I think he’s having one hell of a season so far!

Anyone know when his contract ends in KHL?

Current contract is until the end of 2024/25.

Hoping he comes over to NA next year. Oilers could use a cheap winger with size and young legs, and has some nice play making ability. Tracking very well to start this year.

 

[Caser]

Extended the point streak to 11 games and reached the 100 KHL points mark (regular season + playoffs), from the players born in 2001 and later only Nikishin and Gritsyuk have reached it before him.

Also scored in the SO:

Kid is legit and Oilers can definitely use him. They need to bring him over next season!

Nah, what could Edmonton use a cost-controlled 6'4 scoring winger for? Best just to leave him hanging with no clear plan like Berezhkin himself claims we're doing. f*** do I ever Ioathe Stan Bowman.

I'm pretty sure the plan is to sign him once his contract expires on May 31st, 2025. We can't do anything before that.
