He'll almost certainly get some of those, not that it will matter if he signs the contract and burns it this season (which I think is deeply unlikely because of the change in the KHL calendar). Kaprizov got significant bonuses. I don't think he will be signing for a max contract, though.

Primary assist on the PP. Fires a one timer that squeaks through the goalie and his teammate tapped it in. Right before this he also sent a pass to a guy back post but they missed it

I don't think there's any restrictions about bonus amounts with regards to draft position. Pretty sure Jimmy Vesey and Justin Schultz got max bonus deals on their ELCs.
Looks like Sherterkin had a max bonus ELC when he signed at age 23.
We'll see if Gritsyuk/his agent insist on the ELC being registered for 2024-25 which would allow him to be RFA next summer. Ie, getting a guaranteed one way deal for 2025-26 may be preferable over the mandatory (two way) ELC with potential bonuses.
I don't think Gritysuk has the kind of Leverage a top college UFA does considering we control rights indefinitely vs expiring rights.
However it is a different ballgame with the KHL so who knows.
We'll just have to wait and see
PP 2nd assist on SKA's first goal of the year
Demidov already looks like he's by far the best player on the ice every shift. He's creating left and right. Chicago, Anaheim, and Columbus better pray Levshunov, Sennecke, and Lindstrom really hit because letting him slip to 5 will prove to be an all time bad decision otherwise
Good 1st for Gritsyuk. Involved in a few good chances. Most notable a couple of 2 on 1s. Shot both of them, missed the net on the first. Second one the rebound created a wide open net for his teammate but the D got there right before him and knocked it away. Had a 3 on 2 at the end of the period but bobbled the puck a bit and lost it
Another 2nd assist. Much nicer one here. Got the entry and went to the bottom of the circle, curled back up the boards, passed it to his teammate at the goal line who one touch passed it for a one timer at the hashmarks
What a f***ing goal to tie the game at 4 in the 3rd. Carries the puck from inside his own blue line, beat a guy wide to the boards at center ice, cut inside between 2 guys at the top of the circle then tried to send a backhand pass cross crease to his teammate but it went off the Ds stick and in.
Almost scored earlier in the shift too. Took the puck from the goal line and carried it net front but his shot was stopped

Good game from Arseniy. From everything we saw he is making more steps forward in his development, he is playing more in the edge now and feel the moment better.
such a massive W if this kid can give us great minutes and points in our top 9. i believe
Unfortunately, you are probably right.
I looked it up and the KHL regular season runs through March 23rd.
KHL playoffs will run through May 25th, so guess it depends on how far SKA and NJ go.
Devils' regular season schedule ends on April 16th.
I'm not going to have to re-start the prospect polls so we can vote him higher, am I?
Given that a certain other big named prospect is playing on the same team as him I wouldn't be surprised if a trade thread pops up sometime this season.

Can’t wait to ask for Hutson in return!
