2nd year eligible Russian defender who is a highly skilled big man who will be a value in the late portions of the draft, IF he chooses to cross the pond.
If he was inclined to make the jump to North America last season, he would have been a top two round pick. He is a huge defenseman with a strong shot and strong defensive game. Plays solid within his comfort zone. Good feet, quick stick.
