Just for fun

In the 11 games Kaprizov played without Zuccarello, he scored 17 points. That means in the 70 games he did play with Zuccarello he scored 91 points.

1.55 PPG without Zuccarello
1.3 PPG with Zuccarello
 
Had a dream last night that because of what's going on in Ukraine, Kaprizov was stuck in Russia next season and was unable to come over to play for the Wild.

:(

Selfishly, I hope he decides to spend the summer here instead of going home to Russia.

Chance he'll stay with Zuccarello in Norway, it's also possible for his family to visit him there.

Not taking this political at all, but it's hard to predict what will happen with Russian NHL players. I don't think there's cause for concern at this point, yet.

Trying to keep this apolitical, there's a higher chance that the United States prevents Russians from re-entering than there is of the Russian government preventing their guys from leaving.

Yup. At least there's practically zero chance the NHL itself pulls a Wimbledon and prevents Russian players from even playing.
 

I'd really appreciate if you would support my first video. I put a lot of effort into it. Sorry if this seems like I'm begging for likes or something.

I thought he came out of the gates flying yesterday but we lost energy pretty quickly. He didn’t have a good game when it was all said and done.
 
Sorry if this has already been asked. Could Kaprizov decide to play in Russia during the cap penalty years for the Wild? And if so, what happens to his contract?

It's technically possible, but the KHL and NHL have honored each other's contracts for quite some time now, so it would be surprising to see a KHL team offer him a contract while he's still got an NHL one. That would really ruin relations between the two leagues.

His contract wouldn't expire, it'd be waiting for him to return to the NHL and would resume. There is no transfer agreement, so he'd be stuck with Minnesota.

Doubt he turns down the NHL dollars for lesser money in a KHL that is especially struggling these days.
 
I wonder what the AAV difference between a 5-year and 8-year deal was. This team needs to do everything in their power to form the best team they can over these next 4 years. Complete homer googles on obviously, but this kid is a Top 5 player in the league.

Kaprizov's agent was purposely avoiding an 8 year deal. So... probably max? If even that would be enough. I don't think 8 years was ever in the cards.
