The Los Angeles Kings have signed Owen Sound Attack defenseman Damir Sharipzyanov to a three-year entry-level contract, Kings President/General Manager Dean Lombardi announced on Thursday, Aug. 27.

The 19-year-old Sharipzyanov is a 6-2, 203-pound native of Nizhnekamsk, Russia who appeared in 66 regular-season games last season with the Attack where he produced 34 points, a plus-13 rating and 59 penalty minutes. In five postseason games he posted three points (1-2=3), a plus-1 rating and six penalty minutes. Sharipzyanov has appeared in 133 regular-season games in two seasons with Owen Sound totaling 50 points (14-36=50), a plus-15 rating and 124 penalty minutes. In 10 career postseason games he has registered four points (1-3=4) and six penalty minutes.

Damir was recently in LA undergoing minor surgery on an upper body injury and will not be participating in Attack training camp, but is expected to be ready by late September for game action and will be arriving back in the Scenic City this evening.

The signing of Sharipzyanov comes after he was a free agent invite to the Kings' summer development camp.
