2020 Top 25 Under 25: Semyon Der-Arguchintsev jumps to #15
Photo by Claus Andersen/Getty ImagesIn the 2018 pre-season the Toronto Maple Leafs kept the newly drafted Semyon Der-Arguchintsev in camp longer than anyone expected, and he made his Scotiabank Arena debut in a pre-season game before being sent back to the Peterborough Petes of the Ontario Hockey League.
