FYI update on 2025 draft prospect Ivan Ryabkin, who has 3 goals in 2 games with Muskegon in the USHL since coming to North America from Russia. As I discussed in a prior post, after a great season as a 16 year old Ryabkin appeared to be a virtual lock for the top 10 this summer. A very slow start to the season has called that into question, although according to many draft analysts he remains an early first round selection. Provided he sustains his early success in the USHL, that train of thought will gain momentum.
