Konyushkov’s Two-Year Path to Montreal | Montreal Canadiens News

Montreal Canadiens lock in defenseman Bogdan Konyushkov with a two-year entry-level deal, setting him up for a 2026-27 NHL debut after one final season in the KHL. At 23, his contract is capped at two years — a rarity for a player his age. Konyushkov, drafted in 2023, has already amassed 108 points in 230 KHL games, including a career-best 38 points last season. A proven leader who captained his team and won a VHL title in 2025, he’s poised to bring grit, experience, and offensive upside to the Canadiens’ blue line — whether he starts in Montreal or with Laval.
