Avangard formalizes the recruitment of Bush's successor.
The Skinny on Dmitry Rashevsky
Looks like Avangard just grabbed a gear with the acquisition of Dmitry Rashevsky, a 24-year-old forward straight from Dinamo Moscow. The Omsk team's lineup's got a fresh injection of talent, and Rashevsky's joining their ranks, inked for a two-year contract.
Now sporting the number 96 in Avangard's uniform, the forward's arriving with pretty promising stats. Last season alone, he notched up 19 goals and 21 assists, rocking a +22 plus/minus, playing 65 games.
What's got Avangard's mouths watering though, is the general manager, Alexei Soupin's, glowing introduction. Sounds like he's sold on Rashevsky as the next big thing, referring to him as a high-power sniper with an eye for the goal.
Before his big move to Omsk, Rashevsky was warming the bench at Dinamo, putting up some seriously impressive numbers, particularly in the 2022/2023 season, where he reached a career-high 24 goals and 43 points. Don't be too surprised if we see him shattering Avangard's scoring records soon!
Little tidbit to know, he's been consorting with Avangard's loyal supporters already, inviting them to a raging "Buenosletos" bash at the city park.
Interesting factoid: Rashevsky's journey to stardom kicked off way down the rungs, scoring six points in six games in the VHL, the minor leagues stepping stone to the KHL. His stellar performance in the KHL quickly moved him from a hard-working, high-energy winger to a top-six potential KHL player promising power-play contributions and strong offensive skills.
In short, Avangard's just gotten a record-breaking, goal-storming talent in Rashevsky. Buckle up, it's going to be a wild ride!
Dmitry Rashevsky, recently acquired by Avangard, has a notable background in European leagues, particularly football, as he showcased impressive stats in Russian leagues. His 2022/2023 season with Dinamo Moscow saw him reach a career-high 24 goals and 43 points, suggesting he could shatter Avangard's scoring records.
