i'm not understanding this. if a player leaves the KHL, he has to clear THEIR waivers or the NHL's? |

My guess is it's the KHL's waiver system. |

CB says Petrov not in lineup tonight for AK Bars. Looks like its B-squad, again. Why isn't he making the regular lineup? Makes me wonder if he's even NHL ready

The KHL doesn't let young kids play. They had this Ovechkin kid on the pine before he came over. |

Topic Merger
|
A player can't "leave" Russia with a contract. He either needs to buy out his current contract at 2/3rds the price or the team release him. The Isles in theory can't give him the money to buy out his contract and I'm not sure why that rule is in place or how they police it. |

Bring back...PRIDE OF THE ISLAND
|
well if they can't give the money to petrov. Could they atleast give it to a third party? For example, the Islanders buy something from this person. And that person, with such a generous heart, loans the money to Petrov. And then......

China trip canceled, spending to cap floor, higher parking and fewer perks for fans... in other words, don't expect our Isles to spend money to get Petrov over here before his KHL contract is up. I'd be shocked if he came over earlier by some other means than money changing hands. Man, was great back when guys could defect. :lol: |

In Garth I Trust
|
Why do we even care if he has a KHL contract? Russian players have been under nhl contracts and bolted for the KHL despite having years left on the nhl deal. Why not return the favor? Normally, I wouldn't favor such a move, but the khl has done it to us. I forget the Russian on the Predators who bolted to go home despite years left on his nhl deal. |

Well, they sure do churn out great players? Perhaps young guys fight tooth and nail and gain icetime, becoming excellent players to do so?
