The Islanders announced today that they signed 2025 2nd round pick Daniil Prokhorov to a 3 year entry level contract.
In 43 games last year in the MHL in Russia, Prokhorov had 20 goals and 7 assists. But not only that, he was never afraid to use his body to gain an advantage over the opposition. As we know, being comfortable doing that isn't always the case for bigger players, see Pierre Engvall.
Prokhorov was one of the standouts at this past July's prospect camp not just because of his size 6'6 but his fun personality. Most notably, this includes starting chants with fans after coming off the ice.
It should be fun to see how his game translates now that he will be coming to play in North America and how his career progresses.
