I wouldn't rule out a mutual termination and he can go back to Russia and live the lifestyle he wants.
Confirmed with Link: Nichushkin back in assistance program; suspended a minimum of six months

He'd be leaving a lot of money on the table tho. Unless a KHL team gives him a lucrative contract. Not sure if that kind of money is circulating in that league anymore.

You can take a man out of Chelyabinsk, but you can't take the Chelyabinsk out of a man.
Why have a player assistance program but tell the players hey we can terminate your contract? Who is going to use it? Just no way you can terminate a contract for this just like you can't terminate a contract early cause a player gets hurt too often.

So he has to go through the program, which I'm pretty sure we have no idea what that is exactly, for 6 months during the offseason when he's in Russia? So we can't term the contract and presumably there won't be much oversight until training camp and then if he violates at that point, we can term? Gonna be 3 wasted years due to this.

Avs can terminate, it will just be a legal battle.
Odds are high he's going to an inpatient rehab place in the states. If he doesn't adhere, he won't be reinstated.

If so, there's a chance he says "f*** off i'm going back to Russia" and we can freely terminate.

Can't imagine the players in the locker room will welcome back a 3rd time with open arms. Burned prime years of the core to win more cups. Screwed Parise of his last shot too.

I haven't slept for 10 days cuz that'd be too long
Yeah I do actually.
I deserve it for being the ONLY one here calling him out for being so unprofessional after he already had let the team down last playoffs while y’all were basically cheering him and saying how fantastic he was, that he should take all the time he needs, that you’ll be waiting for him with open arms, that it was absolutely no big deal for him to let the team down again and it was perfectly normal. So what changed now?

Strip the nameplate off and get a Hinote one slapped on. You could also opt for Kamensky (seriously consider this one too) or Hamilton (but why?).
