Bolshakov Makes KHL Pro Debut

Bradford Bulls goaltender Sergey Bolshakov made his professional hockey debut yesterday evening in the Russian KHL.

Bolshakov signed a rookie contract with Khabarovsk Amur of the KHL during the off-season, after winning a Russell Cup Championship last season.

Sergey was also named the GMHL's top goaltender after posting a 15-9-0 record including three shutouts. He also recorded a 2.46GAA and .932save%.

During Bradford's playoff run, Sergey started in 13 games compiling an impressive 12-1-0 record on-route to the championship.

Amur's starting goaltender had an injury, causing Sergey to be called up on a emergency recall. Bolshakov was expected to spend the year on the farm team.

Congratulations Sergey.
