Belarusian forward Mikhail Stefanovich has been assigned to Dynamo Minsk of the KHL by the Toronto Maple Leafs. Dynamo Minsk secured Stefanovich’s right as he was a second overall pick of the 2009 KHL junior draft.
Stefanovich, who played for the Dynamo Minsk organization up to the 2004/2005 season, played only six professional games this year, with the Toronto Marlies of the AHL and the Reading Royals of the ECHL.
After a couple of seasons in Belarus Stefanovich crossed the ocean to play in the QMJHL for the Quebec Remparts and in the 2007-08 season he won the Mike Bossy Trophy as QMJHL’s top prospect of the year. Stefanovich spent in the Q also the two following seasons. He also started playing for the Belarusian national team.
Most likely Stefanovich’s first game with Dynamo Minsk will be played on November 30 against Sibir Novosibirsk.
