I’d like to start off with saying, I have high hopes for this young Russian winger; he may not have started off very well in the NHL but I still hold high hopes for him. Anton Slepyshev has essentially been a non-factor in each of his first four National Hockey League games. However, Anton has shown he is at least capable of keeping up with the different style of hockey that North America is built around. He has demonstrated that he can play physical, and be chippy along the boards.
His play has not translated into anything legitimate as he still has no points thus far in his early career.
