History
2006-07: Kablukov saw limited minutes in 24 games with CSKA Moscow of the Russian SuperLeague. He failed to register a single point, however.
2007-08: There was a marked increase in the lanky Russian’s production this season with CSKA, as he tallied four goals and nine assists in 50 games.
Talent Analysis
Kablukov is similar in many ways to one of the Canucks’ few Russian draft picks, Artem Chubarov. A solid two-way player, Kablukov has shown surprising offensive abilities against players his own age during the Canada-Russia Super Series. With his size and two-way abilities, Kablukov is a steady and reliable player at both ends of the ice.
Future
Kablukov appears to have very real NHL potential, but it could come down to whether or not he is willing to spend time in the AHL. His upside is probably limited to a third-line role.
