Latest Fantasy Rumors
Heading to North America?
Safonov is expected to make the leap to the NHL following the end of Ak Bars Kazan's KHL campaign, per RG Media.
ANALYSIS
Safonov has 17 points over 40 appearances with Ak Bars this season, though he has also dealt with an undisclosed injury. He has yet to display a reliable scoring level in his native Russia, so the 2021 sixth-round pick is unlikely to make a significant impact once he comes to North America. The 23-year-old will likely need to spend some time with AHL Rockford once he signs his entry-level contract.
