Former hockey player for several KHL teams Nikita Shchitov believes that the Russian attacker Nikita Gusev could play in the NHL.
At the end of the 2023/24 season, Gusev was recognized as the most valuable hockey player of the regular season. The forward scored 89 points (23 goals and 66 assists) in 68 regular season games for Dynamo Moscow. Olympic champion Gusev played in the NHL for the New Jersey Devils and Florida Panthers.
— I think Gusev can play in the NHL. It all depends on the choice of coach Nikita, what kind of partners he will have. Gusev’s talent is colossal. If the team, the coach and the partners are favorable to him, then it makes sense to leave. It’s great to play with the strongest hockey players in the world. I want Gusev to succeed in the NHL. It’s not for nothing that he scored so many points last season, “Shchitov told RB Sport.
