Welcome Bogdan
Welcome to the Caps family, Bogdan!
Get him out of Russia, stat!
Hershey will be glad to see him.
Congratulations to Bogdan for signing his new contract with the Capitals. Hopefully, he has no issue leaving Russia since direct flights from USA or Europe to (and from) Russia have been suspended.
The current war definitely complicates things.
Always a big fan of seeing the Russian Pipeline continue to the Caps..
Ever since striking Gold obviously with OV and then Kuzy&Orlov .. Russia has been great hockey Pipeline for caps.
So keep going back& I don’t know this kids ceiling but if he can be a 20+ goal scorer and 50-60 points middle 6 player that’s not bad. If hes top 6 ceiling 20+ goals 60-80 pts per even better
Hopefully they can get him out of Russia this summer.
