Young forward Daniil Prokhorov, a highly-touted Islanders prospect, steps onto the AHL ice for Bridgeport's crucial season finale.
Forward prospect Daniil Prokhorov, whom the New York Islanders selected in the second round (No. 42), will make his AHL debut in Bridgeport's regular season finale against the Hershey Bears.
Prokhorov, who was reassigned from Moscow Dynamo to Bridgeport on Friday, did not play in their 4-1 loss to Wilkes-Barre Scranton Penguins.
In 23 games for Moscow Dynamo, the 18-year-old recorded one goal before failing to find the scoresheet in two playoff games. He played eight games in the MHL (junior equivalent), with six points (three goals, three assists), before 18 points (nine goals, nine assists) in 25 VHL games (AHL equivalent).
Prokhorov is eligible to play in the Calder Cup Playoffs.
