looks like a fast and small type guy.

around a point per game a couple seasons in the AHL. I'm guessing he's destined for the phantoms for now.

also reading around, I guess the ruble has fallen 50% over the past year or so, so KHL guys are taking 50% pay cuts if they stay. which is why a lot of them are coming over.

I love that Hextall is out in front of this and seems to be winning a few of these battles. Great way to stock the cupboards.

I can't remember the signings last year but you can tell Hextall wants to add AHL veteran "stars" to the Phantoms and make them competitive. Fine with me

Depth signing that won't hurt

Speed...more and more speed.
Good puck skills and versatile. All of the players Hexy has signed this offseason seem to share that trait.
Even if they aren't all NHL players in the long run they will make for a better/deeper organization.

Hextall is building the organization from the ground up and that translates into a winning organization down the road.
