Results tagged “Vyacheslav Voinov” from Inside the Kings
After the draft, Dean Lombardi praised second-round pick Vyacheslav Voinov for his willingness to come to North American and play junior hockey, if necessary. It seems as though it's going to happen. A story in the Times & Transcript, a newspaper based out of New Brunswick, indicated that Voinov will be at the start of training camp for the Moncton Wildcats when camp opens Aug. 29.
Moncton selected Voinov with the fifth overall selection in the Canadian Hockey League import draft.
``All indications are they'll both be at camp,'' Moncton coach Danny Flynn said, speaking of Voinov and fellow Russian import Alexander Fomin. ``Voinov just arrived in Ottawa on the weekend. He's training there because that's where his agent lives.''
