For the 2019 offseason, we kick off the Countdown to Camp with a player added to the Toronto Maple Leafs organization a little over a week ago.
Mikhail Abramov was selected 115th overall by the Leafs in the fourth round back on June 22. A center who projects longer term as a right winger, he played for the Victoriaville Tigres of the QMJHL in 2018-19.
Abramov came to North America after playing in CSKA Moscow’s youth system, where he excelled at each of the U16, U17, and U18 levels. Coming to the QMJHL, he was drafted 97th in the CHL Import Draft by Victoriaville.
