He's 22 and has yet to play more than a handful of games in the AHL. His last season in the ECHL wasn't all that special. He's Russian, and could probably break into one of the Russian or European leagues a lot easier than the pros here.
I'm just not sure I see a future for him in North America. He has to at least make the Wranglers this year to still be considered a legitimate prospect. For now, my votes go to younger guys that have runway left over someone like him.
