Minnesota Wild prospect Marat Khusnutdinov has signed a two-year contract extension with SKA St. Petersburg which will see him at the Russian club until the end of the 2023-24 season.

"SKA Hockey Club have signed a new contract with junior Russian national team forward Marat Khusnutdinov. The agreement runs until 30 April 2024," the team announced on their website today.

The 19-year-old is following in the footsteps of Wild forward Kirill Kaprizov, who also spent quite a few years in the KHL before heading over to North America.

Khusnutdinov has appeared in 29 games this season for SKA St. Petersburg where he's tallied eleven points (four goals, seven assists), eight penalty minutes, and is a plus-five.

Yesterday, Khusnutdinov was named to Russia's World Junior roster for the second straight year.
