Aydar Suniev - NHL News & Rumors

Tallies first NHL goal Suniev scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Ducks.

Impact This was Suniev's second NHL game of the campaign, and he earned his first goal in nine total appearances. The 21-year-old winger was alongside Morgan Frost and Matthew Coronato for this contest, which is a top-six role. The Flames' offense isn't going to challenge most teams, but Suniev could develop well if he continues to see NHL usage. Watch from afar unless his hockey stick gets really hot.
