Yes, he can make more rubles in the former USSR, but all the best players play here... If Malkin had gone back, or if Kovalchuk, Ovechkin, or Datsyuk (to name a few big name Ruskies), leave in the next couple of years, then I can see him staying. The NHL and the Stanley Cup are the best of the best in the hockey world, and on a personal level, all players want to achieve greatness here. Plus, he was drafted by the Rangers, which means Brighton Beach and dudes like Teddy KGB can make him feel right at home. And I agree with Sam, Jagr will probably sell the City in a good way. Plus, who in the world wouldn't want to be a star on a one of the top 3 or 4 franchises in the NHL?

What a mistake to fire him. They had a pickup squad, two years in a row. The first year he maanaged to squeak them into the playoffs. The second he kept them competitive through 2/3s of the season. That guy is a great coach. On another note, the abbreviation for the new Russian league is the KHL, not the CHL. Finally, Cherepanov will come here for the same reason that other young Russian stars have come here: the league is better. Cherepanov has the ability to make a lot of money here too, provided he has the goods. So far, the only decent player to leave the NHL for Russia is Radulov, and he still might not be allowed to leave. I don't count Jagr for two reasons. First, he's not a Russian player picking his homeland. Second, because there were NHL teams that were interested, even ones that would've given him a comparable salary, but he really was only interested in NY, and we didn't offer him the contract he wanted. I think if he had hit his 84 point trigger, he would have resigned for only 1 year next year. But the guy wants a 2 year deal, and he couldn't get it. It wasn't that they offered him some amazing deal, it was that he was betweeen two places, and he couldn't work it out with the first one. Even if you count Jagr, that's Jagr and Radulov. But look at all of the great players that have basically said that they preferred the NHL, most notably Malkin. Probably banging DiPietro’s boyfriend.

I read that it may happen this a.m. He's the best thing to come to the Island in years. And just like they ALWAYS do, get rid of what's right, and bring in what's wrong. Unreal, they make me F'n laugh. Maybe he was banging someone's wife again. F’n stupid man.
