Florida Panthers prospect Matvei Shuravin played on the first defense pairing and collected an assist in Krasnaya Armiya’s 8-2 rout over Krylya Sovetov in the season-opener for both MHL teams. Shuravin drew the lone helper on Yegor Solovyov’s goal, which tied the score at two with 46 seconds left in the first period. The 18-year-old was chosen in the third round (97th overall) of the 2024 NHL Entry Draft.

Yesterday we got a look at the full kit for the NHL newest franchise, the Utah Hockey Club. While the colors are nice, the uniform is pretty generic, but that’s not a bad thing as its just a placeholder until the team chooses a nickname and comes up with a full design to go along with it. The Panthers will face the Clubbers for the first time on January 8 at Delta Center.

St. Louis Blues defenseman Torey Krug has chosen to undergo season-ending surgery on his ankle. The Blues will place Krug, whose AAV is $6.5 million, on long-term injury reserve.

After five seasons playing in the NHL, former Ottawa Senators forward Dominik Kubalik is set to rejoin his former team HC Ambri-Piotta in the Swiss National League. The 29-year-old Kubalik spent parts of his NHL career with the Chicago Blackhawks, Detroit Red Wings and Ottawa.
