Yegor Korshkov selected 31st overall by the Toronto Maple Leafs

The Lokomotiv Yaroslavl forward went undrafted last year but had an impressive showing at the 2016 World Juniors for Team Russia with eight points in seven games in addition to 19 points in 15 games in the MHL with Loko Yoroslavl.

Korshkov, BTW, is a 19 year old who wasn't drafted last year. Played very well at the WJC. Could be pro ready sooner rather than later.

At 19, at his size, and coming out of Europe, he would be eligible to join the Toronto Marlies as soon as possible if the Maple Leafs and Korshkov so decide.
