Sergei Murashov, 22, could become the Pittsburgh Penguins' future starting goalie, according to analyst Josh Yohe. Murashov, who played four games in the NHL last season, is noted for his strong performance in the AHL, finishing with a 24-9-3 record. Yohe commended Murashov's mental strength and maturity, highlighting his potential to outperform previous Penguins goalies.
