Yegor Shilov's Player Profile

Steven Ellis - Daily Faceoff - April 14th: "He dominates the puck game, and he’s as skilled as you’ll find in the CHL. There’s no lack of talent here – but he can get caught watching the puck far too often and simply lacks the pace to thrive at the next level. That’ll be a big sticking point for scouts this year."

Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - March 17th: "He has work to do to round out his game defensively, but his instincts on both sides of the puck are there, and Victoriaville has used him in all situations, including on the penalty kill. He's also decent in the faceoff circle. He's highly skilled, with a great shot off balance (he really whips it) and a nasty release off the middle of his blade."

Steven Ellis - Daily Faceoff - March 13th: "Shilov is excellent with the puck, skates well and does a great job of finding teammates through traffic. My biggest complaint is that it feels like he takes too many shifts off, just floating around, hoping for something to happen. Fortunately, he makes enough plays happen to make up for it."

Smaht Scouting - February 27th: "With possession, he’s among the most talented players in the class, manipulating defenders with ease, slipping pucks through traffic, and distributing the puck with imagination and precision. He defends more by anticipation than confrontation, playing with a deep, read-and-react posture that allows him to pick off lanes and disrupt plays with an active stick rather than physical pressure."

Sam Cosentino - Sportsnet - February 25th: "One of the most dynamic power play producers in this draft class, Shilov is slippery holding pucks along the wall. He darts away from defenders at the last second, leaving open-ice ahead of him and with that extra time he’s a dual threat to find open teammates or use his excellent stick and puck skills and quick release to get it to the net himself."
