Vadim Moroz has signed with the Utah Mammoth.

Agent Dan Milstein reported that Belarusian forward Vadim Moroz has agreed to terms on a two-year contract with the Utah Mammoth of the National Hockey League. His contract will run through the 2027/28 season, writes "Belarusian Hockey".

Vadim played for Dynamo Minsk since the summer of 2022. In the last regular season of the KHL, the 22-year-old hockey player played 54 games and scored 29 (14+15) points with a utility rating of +4. In the playoffs he played 8 games and scored 2 (1+1) points with +1.

In the 2023 NHL Draft, Moroz was selected by the Arizona Coyotes (now Utah) at No. 88 overall.

If Vadim plays for Utah instead of being sent to a farm club, he could become the 22nd Belarusian in the world's strongest hockey league since 1992.

His salary in the NHL will be one million dollars a year.
