Flames select Arsenii Sergeyev at 205th overall

The Calgary Flames have made their final selection at the 2021 NHL Draft. With their seventh round pick, 205th overall, they’ve drafted goaltender Arsenii Sergeyev.

Sergeyev was the 8th-ranked North American goalie by Central Scouting. He wasn’t ranked by FC Hockey.

A December 2002 birthday, Sergeyev is originally from Yaroslavl, Russia. He’s listed at 6’3″ and 192 pounds. He came over to North America in 2019-20 and split time between the NAHL’s New Jersey Junior Titans, the USHL’s Sioux Falls Stampede and the NCDC’s New Jersey Rockets.

He played his entire 2020-21 season with the amazingly-named Shreveport Mudbugs of the NAHL, where he posted an impressive 14-4-2 record with a 2.17 goals against average and .936 save percentage in 20 games. He led the Mudbugs to a championship.

Sergeyev is committed to the University of Connecticut for the 2022-23 season and will play with the USHL’s Tri-City Storm for the 2021-22 season.
