Avalanche director of amateur scouting Alan Hepple discusses 2016 NHL Draft prospect Mikhail Sergachev With a well developed body, he uses it to it’s full advantage leveraging players off the puck or pinning them against the boards.While his even-strength game is effective, it’s his point play when a man up that leaves scouts drooling. As players get bigger, better and more experienced, he won’t be able to coast on his natural talent. He seems unbelievably calm out there despite his young age.Sergachev normally looks like one of the best players on the ice, however some scouts have found that every now and again he seems a bit disinterested in the game and has been known to take a shift off.

He’s able to transition quickly. If he’s to unlock what seems like endless potential in both ends of the ice, he has to improve his consistency and continue to play with his physical edge. Scouts think he’s one of the most NHL-ready players in the draft thanks to his size, skill and potential and he has done it all as an OHL rookie. It is a lot tougher to beat him 1-on-1 now than it was earlier in the year . NHL.com is the official web site of the National Hockey League. He doesn’t get rattled with the puck on his stick in his own end, calmly moving it out of the zone and avoiding danger. He’s got that focus on the ice, and he’s a guy you don’t catch out of position.
