Dmitri Simashev - NHL News & Rumors | FOX Sports

Notches three helpers Simashev logged three assists in AHL Tucson's 5-4 overtime win over Iowa on Saturday.

Impact Simashev has maintained a point-per-game pace since he went down to the AHL, and this was his second three-assist effort. He has four goals and 10 helpers over 14 outings, while adding a plus-4 rating and 34 shots on net. Simashev has a promising future, but a little developmental time at Tucson is working wonders for the blueliner's production and confidence.

Adjusting quickly to AHL Simashev posted three assists and a plus-4 rating in AHL Tucson's 8-7 overtime loss to Bakersfield on Saturday.

Impact Simashev took a couple of games to get acclimated with the Roadrunners, but he's earned five points over his last three outings. The 20-year-old defenseman's stay in the minors will probably be temporary, but the Mammoth are opting for a more veteran core of blueliners for the time being. Simashev had one helper and a minus-9 rating in his first 24 NHL appearances prior to his demotion, but playing in the AHL looks to be getting his confidence up again.

Dropped to AHL Simashev was assigned to AHL Tucson on Tuesday.

Impact Utah also recalled Daniil But and placed Kevin Rooney on waivers during Tuesday's roster shuffle. Simashev has one assist, 23 shots on goal, 26 blocked shots and eight hits in 24 NHL appearances this season. He should receive a starring role in the AHL before a potential call-up to the Mammoth later in the year.

Earns first NHL point Simashev recorded an assist and two shots on goal in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Maple Leafs.

Impact The helper was Simashev's first point in 14 appearances for the Mammoth. Despite the lack of offense so far, the 20-year-old defenseman has settled into a top-four role, though he has not received much power-play time. He's added 17 shots on net, 17 blocked shots, 16 PIM and a minus-3 rating while primarily playing alongside Mikhail Sergachev, who scored the goal Simashev assisted on Wednesday.

Gets two shots in debut Simashev recorded two shots as Utah suffered a 2-1 loss to Colorado in his NHL debut Thursday.

Impact Simashev also had a hit and a block in 14:25 of ice time. Although he was selected with the No. 6 overall pick in the 2023 NHL Draft, Simashev isn't likely to be on the radar of many fantasy managers because he lacks offensive upside. The 20-year-old had just 16 points across 119 regular-season appearances with KHL Yaroslavl over the previous two campaigns. Simashev is on Utah's third pairing and doesn't have a role with the man advantage, which also doesn't put him in an optimal position to contribute offensively.

Inks entry-level deal Simashev agreed to terms on a three-year, entry-level contract with Utah on Wednesday.

Impact Simashev will make the jump to North America after spending the last three years playing for Yaroslav Lokomotiv in the KHL. In 56 regular-season games this year, the 20-year-old blueliner notched one goal and five assists before adding one point in 21 playoff appearances. While Simashev figures to get a look during training camp in the fall, he will likely spend the bulk of the 2025-26 campaign in the minors with AHL Tucson.

Set to join NHL club in 2024-25 Simashev is expected to sign with Utah when the KHL season ends and could debut with the club in April, per RG Media.

Impact Simashev would need to sign an entry-level deal with Utah when his campaign with Yaroslavl Lokomotiv ends and would burn a year of that contract by joining up with Utah right away. Selected by the club with the sixth overall pick in the 2023 NHL Draft, Simashev isn't exactly known for his offensive upside, having tallied just six points in 47 games in the KHL this year.
