Yegor Surin - C | 22nd Overall (1st round) | 2024 Draft

[Scoresberg]

Surin with a three-point night in the MHL last night. Up to 4 points in 3 games.

He also scored his 1st point in the KHL last week (an assist).

 

[Scoresberg]

Surin's 1st goal in the KHL. Ended up as a game-winner, too. 2 points in 12 games with limited ice-time so far for Surin.

Surin started out slow at the KHL but has been getting into a rythem after some VHL games. Only 4 players 18 or younger have played in KHL games so far this season. He is still real young

What's the scoring comparison for the other guys? I know it's early, but just curious.

For 18 and below, 2nd in games played and points. 1st in goals.

Expand it to 19 and below and he'd be somewhere around 7th for points (out of 48) and 4th for goals.

way faster production arc than svechkov too in comparison

Surin has some grit to his game. He's also increased his production for the playoffs. He was a finalist for the KHL rookie of the year as one of the youngest players in the league (I read 15th youngest but can't confirm). Demidov was the easy pick, but nice to see the recognition for Surin.

I still have doubts if he finishes as a Center long term, but I really like his game. He's got some Tarasenko to his game with some Sam Bennett.

Frankly at this point I'm not worried about guys sticking at Center long term. We need good players so if he is that I'm game.

Bingo. Beggers can't be choosers at this point. We just need guys who can be productive.

AND guys who the "braintrust" might actually appreciate stylistically... and hence won't roadblock their development. Surin's edginess will probably endear him to the "braintrust", which hopefully will help him avoid being sidelined the way some of our less-edgy guys have been?

Surin definitely looks like a solid pick from a rather weak draft class. Fierce competitor, offensively capable and strong as an ox. Was very good as an 18-year-old on a team that won the whole thing in the KHL. Played most of the year with Radulov, who's actually a decent comparable for him. Production also increased throughout the season.

All very encouraging signs for a guy who's looking to pop off offensively next year in the KHL.

Speaking of Radulov… he and Surin.
