The standout moment for him for me was that he finished 2nd among the prospect skaters in fitness.
Very rare to see a player just drafted, and attending his first development camp score so high in the fitness testing. Feel like it has to be even more rare for it to be an undersized forward that does well in those tests, and likely even more rare for that player to be an ultra skilled russian forward.
His skill set is clearly there, but to me the fact that he seems so dedicated and determined to be a good player stands out the most.
Excited to see how he does with Alexis Lafrenière on Rimouski this season.
