Breaking News Regarding a Montreal Canadiens Prospect
Significant news has just been released concerning a Montreal Canadiens prospect who has just been drafted.
Indeed, the defenseman Bogdan Konyushkov, selected 110th in the 2023 Draft, has just signed a three-year contract extension in the KHL.
This fourth-round pick is thus not expected to make the jump to North America for several years. It is possible that this contract could be terminated before its term ends, if the Canadiens want to repatriate him to the NHL earlier, but it must be said that this is significant news for this prospect.
At 20 years old, the Tricolore has bet on the offensive potential of this Russian rear-guard who played the last season in the KHL. He finished with a very interesting record of 25 points in 64 games, which is a rather impressive production for a player his age.
His development will be watched closely in the coming years, but the good side of this situation for the Canadiens is that the organization he belongs to, Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod, is banking on the young man's progression and wants to make him the linchpin of the team's defense.
He should therefore have a lot of responsibilities and playing time in the coming seasons.
