An overage Russian, huh? The NHL Network has him listed as 5'7" 154, which seems hard to believe since that would be smaller than Hutson.

110th Overall – D Bogdan Konyushkov, Torpedo (KHL)
Montreal didn’t shy away from Russia entirely this draft. Konyushkov is in his third year of eligibility and played a full season at the KHL level in 2022-23. Curiously, the NHL has him listed at 5’7 while others have him listed at 5’11. He led his team in ice time this past season at just under 21 minutes a night, impressive for a rookie. With the NHL not having a transfer agreement with Russia, the Canadiens will hold his rights indefinitely. He’s signed for next season in the KHL already.

Scouting Report
McKeens: If we look at the basic stat line it looks good, but not too special for defenseman Bogdan Konyushkov, which is likely the reason there isn’t much mainstream talk about him outside of Russia, yet even just pure stats can be more interesting if we look at those closer and at the right angle. First thing that stands out in case of Konyushkov is that despite his age he made his KHL debut just this season and actually led his KHL team in average ice time, as his cerebral game on both ends convinced coach Igor Larionov to immediately give him an opportunity for a leading role on the team. And if we look at advanced stats, those are telling that this trust paid off really well, as Konyushkov is among the league’s leaders in both completed pass amount and percentage, as well as in the puck battle win percentage — quite a debut season I’d say.

It's not easy to pick up points in the KHL. (Do they count just one assist?). The .5 ppg in the playoffs is interesting, especially for a 20 year old.
