Did you wait a bit on Tuesday this week before we announced his name?
We waited for 1 year his arrival!
Your Titans are very excited to announce the signing…and arrival in
of Russian top forward ALEXANDER BARAKHTIN!
Alexander Barakhtin (2002) 6’1’’ 180 played 3 seasons in
with Prep school OHA in Cornwall, Ont.
In his last U18AAA season with them he produced 61 points in 32 games.
Forced to stay in Russia for 2 years due to the closure of Canadian borders due to COVID, he played in MHL (Russian Major Jr) in 20-21 and in the strongest Belarus League in 21-22).
In Belarus he amassed 39 points in 31 games, making him the best imported player on his team.
Last year he was only able to train because he had planned to play with us. But the delays of the immigration service
towards Russian nationals made him wait 7 months to obtain his visa. He thus missed his season.
Alexander is a spectacular player, a bit of a mix between Ilya Badanin and Reingold Shtemke.
The 3 are very good friends. He is undoubtedly an impact player.
The big question now?
“When will he arrive in
?
The answer?
“He’s here already and has been in Montreal for 72 hours! »
He will arrive in Temiscaming in a few days.
He will be able to take part in pre-camp, training camp and start the season with us.
It goes without saying that we are very happy to share this news with you today.
Welcome to the Titans Alexander !
