What I don’t hear in this answer is no.

Not trying to be argumentative, but is there actually any reason why he can't sign with the NHL while still under contract? I thought the NHL and KHL didn't have an official agreement.

3 reasons.
1. He will ineligible for IIHF competition.
2. It’s in neither the NHL’s or KHL’s interest to start poaching players.
3. (Like stated above) it violates the spirit of international labor laws.
 
Roman Rotenberg: in my opinion, Nikishin and Demidov should stay in Russia, in SKA.
He says they have a lot of mistakes, and we believe them, but they will send them to the AHL.
He gives the example of Podkolzin.
Roman Rotenberg: NHL club owners call players and say: come, any money
Roman Rotenberg: Ivan Demidov? I don't know about Montreal - he is an SKA player
 
International labour laws. Even without a Transfer Agreement, KHL and NHL teams will pay lip service to it.
international labour laws? wtf is that, from russian ground ok lol dimissed, from international space station? ok lol dissmised again, from canada? highly doubtful

The AHL story is evident BS in the case of those two.
 
That's it, now I hope SKA will release Demidov from his contract.

Do you think there's any chance this actually happens ? Both Habs management and Rottenburg have repeated he'd have to stay until May 31st. Having him come over would be a game changer

There's clauses in the KHL CBA that give the power to teams to unilaterally terminate the contract. SKA President would probably make that decision. Certainly not Rottenburg. And then, HuGo would need to want him over despite his ELC situation.
 
He believes that Nikishin and Demidov make a lot of mistakes in the game, but in SKA they are forgiven and allowed to play, but in the NHL they will not be forgiven and will be immediately sent to the AHL, as was the case with Podkolzin.Do not pay attention to his words, he is a rich clown who imagines himself a coach, a manager. In Russia, everyone just laughs at him.
 
I am sure this russian regime cares about international law. Demidov will come over if SKA agrees to it.
Demidov has a signed fixed-term employment contract that ends on May 31th. Russian Courts will enforce this on behalf of SKA, and I strongly suspect Canadian Courts too. But SKA could, at it's own leisure, if it so desires, decide to unilaterally terminate the contract earlier.

How would that conversation go?

Hughes - Hi Mr. President....Kent Hughes here
SKA Prez - Who?
Hughes - GM Montreal Canadiens....I'd like to talk to you about releasing Ivan Demidov from his contractual obligations.
SKA Prez - Say no more......10 million crisp American dollars.....91 cartons of cigarettes.....American camels preferably.....Pizza party for me and my friends in the penthouse of the Burj Khalifa sponsored by Molson Beer with guest appearance by the Littlest Hobo and finally a signed Nick Suzuki SKA jersey.
Hughes - uhhhhh.....okay done.
