C Dmitriy Zlodeyev - Abbotsford Canucks, AHL (2020, 175th, VAN)

[Caser]

Thought that a it would be good to create a thread about Dmitriy Zlodeyev. He is a smart center, pretty hard working one, wtih good skating, playmaking and ability to finish the plays too.

I think Craig Button would take him 1st overall lol

The best part there is the stats line: they took off 20 PIM and added those to his points total.

3 goals in first 3 VHL games this season, including this redirection:

I like that name, what a thief.

 

[Kshahdoo]

1 assist in 4 MHL games and 3 goals in 4 VHL games, interesting statistics.

I like that name, what a thief.

It was a bit funny last season when he was Dynamo MHL team's captain for some games, because 'captain Zlodeyev' in Russian sounds the same as 'captain of villains'.

Zloděj means thief in czech language, literal meaning is ''doing evil''. Zlodeyev sounds so badass.

Craig Button seems to like him. Other scouts either didn't see him much or were not impressed.

Will be interesting to see where (if) he is taken.

We have very little info on this particular unique player. I personally have little to no expectations for prospects drafted this late, especially when it comes to Canucks drafting this late since however I just want to make this post on the main forum and see if any people who follow the Russia's junior leagues can provide some insight on this particular player. I wouldn't even bother making this thread but upon doing some extra research, people have been gushing about this guy.

Dmitri Zlodeyev at eliteprospects.com

is the only info I found. Hockeydb doesn't even have any info on him.

Craig Button was raving about pretty much all of the Canucks draft picks and seem to be madly in love with this player.

Button literally gives this prospects perfect 5 across the board. Puts Patrick Kane and Steve Yzerman as comparables. His projection from Button is a number 1 offensive centreman.

Here's what Steve Kournianos @TheDraftAnalyst had to say.

I am looking forward for a great clash of top teams on 23rd Feb. when Dynamo plays SKA-1946. Fingers crossed all the guys are healthy and the amount of talent on both sides will be glorious.
