Bogdan Petrovich Yakimov (born 4 October 1994) is a Russian former professional ice hockey centre who played in the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) and briefly in the National Hockey League (NHL) with the Edmonton Oilers. Yakimov was selected 32nd overall by HC Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk in the 2011 KHL Junior Draft and was also selected by the Oilers in the 3rd round (83rd overall) of the 2013 NHL Entry Draft.
Playing career
[edit]Leading up to the 2013 NHL Entry Draft, Yakimov was lauded as a top prospect[1] who was Ranked 11th in the NHL Central Scouting Bureau's Final 2013 International Skater Rankings.[2] whilst playing with Reaktor of the MHL, a junior affiliate, of HC Nizhnekamsk Neftekhimik.[citation needed]
After his first season in the Kontinental Hockey League with Neftekhimik, Yakimov was signed to a three-year entry-level contract with the Edmonton Oilers on 5 August 2014.[3]
On 28 July 2016, Yakimov was loaned by the Oilers to return for a third stint with HC Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk of the KHL for the 2016–17 season.[4]
Continuing his loan into the 2017–18 season. He notched a career-high 8 goals and matched his previous season's 11 points in 56 games.[citation needed]
Unsigned from the Oilers, but his rights retained by the club, Yakimov opted to continue in the KHL with Nizhnekamsk. During the 2018–19 season, while stagnating with Nizhnekamsk in registering just 3 points in 27 games, Yakimov was traded to Avangard Omsk on 26 November 2018.[5] His stay with Avangard was brief, after going scoreless in 5 games, he was again traded, joining his third KHL outfit, Severstal Cherepovets, on 23 December 2018.[6]
On 1 May 2020, with one year remaining under contract, Yakimov was traded by Severstal to perennial contending club, SKA Saint Petersburg, in exchange for financial compensation.[7] Yakimov made 6 appearances with SKA before he was traded to HC Sochi in exchange for Daniil Ogirchuk and Pavel Kukshtel on 23 December 2020.[8]
