I am not sure if it still works the same but in the past players could buy themselves out of contracts.my understanding is that it's usually a buyout of some sort that the "player" pays to the team. I assume what usually happens is the player gets a loan from his agent or someone.
I wouldn't be shocked if the Wings do essentially gift him a spot next year, though. At least if he maintains his pace in Russia this season. Right now we could slot him into Kane's spot and not miss a thing.
Would be great and exciting to see him come over but I also am with others who thinks he'll finish out his KHL contract.
