"Dmitry Gamzin is a 22-year-old Russian netminder, drafted by the Islanders, known for his compact style, calm demeanor, and impressive performance in the KHL."
"Last season, Gamzin recorded a .928 save percentage and 2.24 goals-against average in 24 games, earning KHL Rookie of the Week honors."
Islanders fans have enjoyed elite goaltending, but with Semyon Varlamov aging and uncertain, attention shifts to Dmitry Gamzin. Gamzin, a 22-year-old Russian goaltender, was drafted 113th overall in 2024 and is considered a rising talent. He demonstrates excellent puck tracking, solid technique, and reacts calmly, which is crucial for a goalie. Last season with CSKA Moscow, he achieved a .928 save percentage and a 2.24 goals-against average. Although under contract for two more years with CSKA, his performance indicates he could be key for the Islanders' future.
