History
2008-09: Played for Metallurg Magnitogorsk in the third league. He played off the radar most of the season, playing only nine matches with Metallurg 2 and 17 for the junior team.
Backstopped Team Russia in the U18s World Championships to a silver medal and was named the Top Goalie for the tournament.
Talent Analysis
A very tall goalie who plays a stand-up style. His style relies mostly on his size and on his athletism: at 6'4" he covers a large part of the net, and with his very quick legs he can either stretch them for a pad save or effectively slide around from post to post. He needs to work on his glove hand, technique and challenging, but he has the physical edge to play in North America.
