Tod Button says this is a goalie department (Jordan Sigalet and Thomas Speer) pick who video scouted him and Speer was lucky enough to see him play live a little

none of the scouts saw him play

What kind of beast is he going to be? This organization could use a wildebeest. I've been hoping they would draft one of those.

They must like recruiting from Russia. It's where Yan Kuznetsov played the last two years too.

UConn is very Russian friendly.

IIRC Max Letunov had trouble getting in some NCAA colleges because their admissions office wouldn't accept his Russian high school transcripts. UConn was one of the few schools that would.

It seems like the the Finns were overbreeding their goalies, and whomever they were using for breeding stock have become too exhausted.


I seems to me that Russia, USA and Sweden have taken that over now.

The Mudbugs have existed in one form or another for a long time. Used to be in various low-level pro leagues.

I guess the junior team picked it up.
