Perezhogin is moving up Justin Dahan (HV) Alexander Perezhogin is a talented, young right winger from Kamenogorsk, Kazekhastan, who plays for the Montreal Canadiens. Perezhogin demonstrates blazing speed and great offensive talent. Alexander also demonstrates a surprising amount of strength; he tips the scales at 211 pounds. With his strength he is able to control the puck in the corners, which allows him to create scoring chances for him and his line mates.
Alexander describes himself as a hard working player who gives it all his effort every shift. Guy Carbonneau (Montreal Canadiens Head Coach) must agree because despite Alexander’s slow start (1 goal, 4 assists) he has been promoted to the second line playing with Alexei Kovalev, and Sergei Samsonov.
Perezhogin loves playing with Kovalev and Samsonov. He says it’s really good for him to play with Kovalev and Samsonov, he really thinks it’s a great step for his career. It also helps Perezhogin communicate while on the ice because both his line mates speak Russian.
Perezhogin also finds his role is much bigger this year. He says that he is more concentrated on hockey and on his game while last year was more of him adapting to the style and the different rules.
It is expected that Perezhogin will keep improving and develop into an elite talent for the Montreal Canadiens in the future. For now he’s just trying his hardest to contribute what he can.
