What’s the chance he comes over?

As in most of the cases with Russian-based prospects this type of questions should be automatically transformed into "What's the chance he developes into a player capable to be a full-time NHLer?" and for obvious reasons it's not easy to answer that at this point. Not like it needs to be answered urgently though, as he is contracted until 2024 anyway.

He reminds me a little of Malkin

He reminds me some of Gretzky and has a tad of Jagr too

Some say Chuck Norris is afraid of nothing but one person in this world. That person is Ilya Safonov.

Has he ever acknowledged attempting to come over after his contract expires?
