Is he going to Russia through Dubai?
Healthy scratch didn't seal anything. If he was healthy scratched for good? Maybe.Healthy scratch in the playoffs sealed the deal...even if he was decent when he came back before the injury.
WTF are you talking about?Healthy scratch didn't seal anything. If he was healthy scratched for good? Maybe.
He came back very strong, though. GMs will look at games 1 and 2 in the SCF and think "this guy can be a big game player."
Just ask Tomas Tatar if being healthy scratched in the playoffs has meant anything.
Dubai is one of the most opulent, expensive places on the planet.
He's obviously going there to celebrate his first big money contract.
The deal will be announced tomorrow or Monday. Book it.
*Wishful thinking*
Kaprizov was trying to enter the US through Dubai a couple of days ago, it's a hub for Russian players to go from Russia to the US and the other way around.Dubai has a relatively large Russian community that has grown with Russian oligarchs fleeing the recent sanctions.
Doesn't. Mean. Anything.WTF are you talking about?
Tatar got healthy scratched and wasn't handed an offer by the Habs. Same shit will happen with Bura and Colorado.
And still got basically 5mil by the Devils?WTF are you talking about?

What the Hell man? I'm not saying he won't make money with another team.Doesn't. Mean. Anything.
Burakovsky will get paid by some team. Tatar got healthy scratched by BOTH Vegas and Montreal and still secured 4.5M per season from NJ.
Healthy scratch in playoffs, especially given how Burakovsky responded, doesn't mean shit.
They probably reached a deal and his agent will finalize the details, they don't need him anymore.
Kirill Kaprizov says hi.Val’s probably just going home to see his family for the first time in forever for a few weeks before it’s go time again. All of these guys would’ve been long gone if not for the Cup win.
I’m actually not even worried about his deal anymore. I’d be really surprised if he’s not back now.
Kirill Kaprizov says hi.
at 5m with a minimum cap of 87M in season 2025-2026 this is much less than 6M at 82.5MManson’s contract will turn into what EJ’s deal is now. He’s not good enough in the short term to justify that. I thought he had good and bad moments in the playoffs. Didn’t think he was an overwhelming positive.
Bring him back for cheap, but anything at, or above 4 is a mistake.
Should Putin lock up Nichushkin until he fulfills his military obligation to Mother Russia then we better hope Sakic still hasn’t signed him.
