Everyone knows sharks 7th rounders are money. This kid is going to be a top 4.

 

[Lucky Luke]

I am a long-time Gatineau Olympiques fan.
Kashnikov really improved his play significantly last season.
He's physically tough to compete against.
If he continues to develop his game and maintains his work ethic, he may eventually make an NHL spot for himself in the next few years.

This kid's gonna be another Knyzhov for us.

Looks like the Sharks thought they needed another EK.

[YUPPY 2 7 10 11]

Position: Defense/Forward
Age: 18
Height: 6'6" / 197 cm

Tall dude. He's even taller than Burns

 

[hohosaregood]

He's been my personal dark horse to make it from this draft. I like that his metrics are grading out well too.

7th round snatch

Inb4 they give him #88, play him 40 min a game, teach him the art of the 100 ft stretch pass/shot, and give him a nickname like "the bear" even though he's not uber aggressive.

Is he more Mike Rathje than Brent Burns?

I think the Burns comp is because he's played forward and defense. Left shot though.
