Igor Chernyshov's Player Profile

Jason Bukala - Sportsnet - June 11th: "He reads where to be off the puck and finds quiet ice in the process. His combination of size and skill project him as a top two line scoring winger who leans shooter/finisher more than distributor."

Adam Kimelman - NHL.com - June 11th: "A big, skilled forward who already has shown an ability to use his body to attack the net and produce as an 18-year-old in the KHL."

Mike Morreale - NHL.com - June 11th: "The 18-year-old right-handed shot, who thrives on his off wing, has the look of a playmaking wing or center with power-forward potential at the next level."

Chris Peters - Flo Hockey - June 3rd: "He’s 6-foot-2 and closing in on 200 pounds, making him hard to knock off the puck. He has good-enough pace, never quits on pucks and engages physically. Chernyshov has a strong shot with an ability to beat goalies from distance and he can get it off in a variety of ways."

Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - June 3: "He’s a big, strong winger and modern power-forward type where driving is a part of his identity but not to a bullish fault as his only focus. He plays a straight-line game and has the individual skill and a quick release to go at defenders and make plays off the rush or finish from the slot with a quick, one-touch shot in zone."

Corey Pronman - The Athletic - May 28th: "He's not going to run players over with his physical play, but he uses his body to create offense. He has the ability to control play at even strength due to his variety of tools and looks the part of a potential strong top-six winger in the NHL."

Steven Ellis - Daily Faceoff - May 28th: "At 6-foot-2 and 192 pounds, Chernyshov has good size and isn’t afraid to use it. He played more than half the season in the KHL but was also a stout offensive threat in the MHL thanks to his slick stickhandling."

Graham Montgomery - Dobber Prospects - Apr. 20th: "The Russian winger is the prototype of what NHL general managers look for. He has the soft skills one might expect from a smaller player on a mature, 6’2” frame. His toolkit is highlighted first by his shot, which is good enough to beat KHL goaltenders on clean looks, and his stickhandling, which is best put to use when he’s changing the angle on defenders."

Central Scouting - Apr. 16th: "Good set of tools including skating, passing, puck-handling and shot. Makes smart decisions and uses his size well in battles. A solid, reliable twoway team-player who is very responsible also in the defensive zone."

Tony Ferrari - The Hockey News - Apr. 15th: "He isn’t a stud in his own end, but he tries to take advantage of mistakes rather than force them in the defensive zone. Chernyshov skates well and has solid puck-transporting skills."
