With the 74th overall pick in the 2022 NHL Draft, the Buffalo Sabres selected Viktor Neuchev, a left winger from Avto Yekaterinburg of the Russian MHL.
Viktor Neuchev is a very talented prospect with elite puck skills and agility. He can carve his way through tight areas with ease.
He has 40 points (23G/17A) in 41 GP this season, 10 more than any teammate. I like him as an early 2nd round option. #2022NHLDraft pic.twitter.com/FEx4zWFDS8— Ben Misfeldt (@BBMHockey) January 14, 2022Best known for his shot and scoring prowess; Neuchev pocketed 40 goals in 61 games for his MHL club.
