Alexander Mikhailishin was born in Moscow, Russia and spent most of his junior career skating in HC Spartak’s hockey system. The young defenseman had a couple of stints with the Russian national team, but never earned a consistent spot on the squad. The young prospect was largely drafted by the New Jersey Devils with the 155th selection in the 2004 NHL Entry Draft due to his immense size, but it appears that the defensive prospect has not justified the club’s hopes, splitting his time between Russia’s second and third tier leagues, never even cracking the Russian Super League since being drafted.[1]
