slower start to the season prior to 2 goals, chance his injury the end of last year still lingering?

Nothing I've heared about. But his team has been doing alright, and he still has 7 goals in 15 games.

Thanks. Do you think he will sign an NHL deal sometime in the future (or is worthy of it, maybe two different questions)? seemed more likely than not last season

Did he miss last game vs Sochi due to injury?

Nope, just healthy scratched.

Kind of weird he was healthy scratch, his game seems to have fall off a lot

After a strech of 6 pointless games, a goal and 2 assists today gives him 7 points in his last 3

What's the word on this fella? Does his contract expire after this season? Any word on if he is planning to come to the NHL.

Contract expires May 2026. I'm not sure if he's expressed a desire to come to America but we'll see if an opportunity arises. Carolina is a team I've wondered about seeing him join. Their prospect Artamonov is a teammate and his contract expires at the same time.
