Defenseman Dmitri Simashev signed his three-year, entry-level contract with the Utah Mammoth, the team announced Wednesday.
Simashev, 20, was selected by the Arizona Coyotes (now Mammoth) with the sixth overall pick of the 2023 NHL Draft.
“We are thrilled to sign Dmitri to an NHL contract,” general manager Bill Armstrong said in a statement. “Dmitri has established himself as one of the top defenseman prospects in the NHL and we look forward to watching him play for the Mammoth for many years to come.”
The 6-foot-5 Simashev recorded six points (one goal, five assists), four penalty minutes and 54 blocked shots in 56 regular-season games for Lokomotiv Yaroslavl of the Kontinental Hockey League in 2024-25.
