Alexander Nikishin imposed himself as one of the top defensive prospects in hockey last season with his 55 points in 65 games in the KHL. He repeated this performance again this season. Combining size, strength, and mobility, he’s an easy NHL projection. He can deny space with his stick, box out opponents from the low-slot, and drive ahead on the attack. His aggressive, shoot-first mentality fits well in the Washington Capitals' system. He could fill a top-four role for them immediately after crossing the Atlantic. (EliteProspects, 2024)
