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?).
It's a Chinese one. Getting a nameplate would cost more than it cost originally haha. I would like a Kamensky one though

Which brings us to the harder conversation: What do you do next if you’re the Avalanche?

Nichushkin is wrapping up the second season of an eight-year, $49 million contract. In case people are wondering, a league source said what has transpired here does not constitute grounds for the Avalanche to consider a contract termination. A league source also confirmed that Nichushkin will not count on the Avalanche’s salary cap while he’s suspended over the next six months. But if he’s cleared from Stage 3 in six months, his contract goes back on the cap. That could be around November.

Fun times ahead!

So the worst case scenario is likely
