The San Jose Sharks announced Monday morning that they have signed Russian forward Timur Ibragimov to a three-year, entry-level contract.

“Timur is a fast, physical winger with a nose for the net,” said Sharks general manager Doug Wilson. “He uses his quickness to beat players up the ice and is hard to play against. We are confident his speed, shot, and work ethic will be assets to this organization.”

Ibragimov, 19, appeared in 35 games for SKA Neva St. Petersburg in the VHL this season. In those 35 games he scored five goals and added eight helpers. He started the season with SKA-1946 St. Petersburg of the MHL, a junior league in Russia, appearing in seven games. He scored five goals and seven points in those seven games and was brought up to the VHL as a result.

The six-foot-one left winger was drafted by the Sharks in the sixth-round (164th) of the 2019 NHL Entry Draft.
