Belarusian Hockey Player Made His NHL Debut

The Belarusian player recorded an assist as early as the 9th minute of the first period.

24-year-old Belarusian forward Vitaly Pinchuk made his National Hockey League debut for Nashville and even recorded his first points, according to hockey.by.

The debut took place on the night of October 11, Minsk time, in a game against Ottawa. The team suffered a loss (2–3 in a shootout), but the Belarusian player recorded an assist as early as the 9th minute of the first period.

Thanks to this, Pinchuk became the 15th Belarusian hockey player in history to record at least one point in the NHL regular season. Leading the list are Mikhail Grabovsky—296 (125+171) points in 534 games—and Yegor Sharangovich — 228 (116+112) points in 442 games, and Andrei Kostitsyn — 222 (103+119) points in 398 games. As a reminder, Sharagnovich is still active.
