Nikita Blednov has mastered the fundamentals of the game. He plays a simple, effective brand of hockey based on sound positioning and effort. Just the sort of player a coach loves to have at the bottom of their lineup. More than anything, he’s a shutdown player. Blednov’s a grinder who takes serious pride in honing the details of the game. He reloads to defensive positions ahead of turnovers, scans the ice to locate his check in transition and the defensive zone, and his stick constantly occupies opposing passing lanes. -EliteProspects 2022 NHL Draft Guide
