The Kraken used their 99th overall pick to get a little russian flair in their draft class!
Fedorov comes from Tomsk, Russia, sitting at 5’10 and 183 pounds, shooting left. He plays in the Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod club; which like all Russian teams, tends to ping-pong it’s prospects across their teams until they find a spot in which they can sit. As a result, he played in all three levels of their system and got points in all of them; showing a patient, intelligent style of play while not shying away from physical contact. His point totals aren’t going to wow anyone, but he was spending a lot of time getting sent up and down the Novgorod system this year, so it’s at least understandable. With more stable minutes, I imagine he’ll start to blossom into who he really is.
Here are his stats!
Let’s all welcome Viktor to The Deep!
