He’s previously played with the New York Rangers and the Carolina Hurricanes, but now he’s heading off to Nashville. Skjei is a defenseman who can contribute in both ends of the ice.

Nashville Predators Draft Yegor Surin 22nd Overall
June 28, 2024 by Stefano Rubino
Yegor Surin is 6-foot-1, which gives him the size to excel as a professional forward. His high motor skills make him a consistent defensive presence. These are the main reasons he could be a long-term center, although he can play any of the three forward positions. Despite being a high-effort player, he also has offensive skills. He is particularly dangerous on the power play from the flank, and his complex and accurate shot makes him a scoring threat from a reasonable range.
