All others who participated in training camps have been sent to farm clubs.
Today marks the start of the 109th season in the strongest hockey league in the world — the overseas National Hockey League.
It turns out that five Belarusians will start the season in it. All of them played in the NHL last year. As of Tuesday morning, all of them are included in the starting rosters of their clubs.
These are Aliaksei and Ilya Protas ('Washington Capitals'), Ilya Solovyov ('Pittsburgh Penguins'), Yegor Sharangovich ('Calgary Flames'), Artsiom Leushunou ('Chicago').
New Jersey defenseman Vladislav Kolyachonok and Vancouver goaltender Nikita Tolopilo were placed on waivers by their clubs a few days ago; no other clubs claimed them, so they are going to farm clubs in the AHL (American Hockey League): 'Utica' and 'Abbotsford'. The AHL is the second most important hockey league in North America.
Goaltender Aliaksei Kolosov, who played several matches for 'Philadelphia' last season, has been sent to the AHL to 'Lehigh'.
Vitali Pinchuk, Vadim Moroz, Yegor Borikov, who signed contracts with NHL clubs in the spring, failed to make the cut through training camps in September and are also initially going to the AHL: Pinchuk to 'Milwaukee' (Nashville's farm team), Moroz and Borikov to 'Tucson' (Utah's farm team). Forward Andrei Lashko failed to break into the main roster of 'Seattle' and will play in 'Coachella' in the AHL.
Matvei Nikanovich, Danila Rusakovich, Yaroslav Bryzgalov were drafted in the summer and will also start their careers with farm clubs.
However, it is worth emphasizing that Belarusians can be called up to the NHL from farm clubs at any moment.
