One notable, is Richard Zednik, who signed with Yaroslav this year. Others of the past include Jagr, Emery, Yashin and so on but how abot this year? this summer?

This season, I predict Radek Dvorak will go to the KHL.

Afinogenov is my guess! Sprukts may be, but he's not really NHL material anyways.
Murphy would be a good fit for KHL.

I would say Brent Johnson. He's gonna be UFA and unless Washington gets rid of Theo, Johnson is gone and I am sure there will be teams who would want to sign him.

McCarty and McAmmond are too old, Samsonov is under contract with Carolina, and is Warrener even going to play again?

My list:

Miroslav Satan
Maxim Afinogenov
Possibly Ville Peltonen if he doesn't retire.
Brent Johnson
Marek Malik should be able to find a contract somewhere.
Daniel Tjarnqvist
Lasse Kukkonen
Andrew Raycroft if he can find someone who wants him.
Ossi Vaananen
Tomas Mojzis
Josef Melichar
Jason LaBarbera
Radek Dvorak
Dmitri Kalinin
Jason Krog (No, he means it this time.)
Frantisek Kaberle, pending a buyout.
Possibly Ruslan Fedotenko
I would assume that Ryan Vesce would get offers but will likely go back to Sweden or Finland.

It's entirely possible that Gaborik goes east if he doesn't get the money he wants in North America.

Err, I think you meant Manny Legace.

As for Brashear. Well it seems that it's possible and well vityaz are idiots, but as for Brashear you can say that Wade Belaks punch send him to KHL LOL. No offense to KHL but Brashear probably doesn't think that he can be the champ anymore and now wants to earn some bucks befor retirement.

I think most of this guys will not be in KHL next season. Espescially doubt about Fedotenko, Gaborik and Peltonen. Mojizis and Krog I doubt it aswell. Tjarnqvist will most likely end somewhere in Rogle or Djurgarden.

Lisin may return. He is 50/50 right now because management was impressed with him, yet Gretzky doesn't like him. His contract his up and I can guarantee you he wont settle for a two-way.
Nikulin is going back for sure.
Ilya Zubov will probably return if he doesn't make the senators out of camp.
Add Anders Erikson, Jamie Heward to the list.

Osgood is a number 1 goalie in best NHL team, everybody loves him in Detroit even though he's a questionable elite goaltrender. Why would he go to Russia? Sounds insane.

A Swedish report on Monday said that goalie Mikael Tellqvist has signed with Ak Bars Kazan of the Russian Continental Hockey League for next season. The deal is believed to be worth about $1.3 million, a raise of $500,000 from Tellqvist's NHL salary this past year.

He'll remain a Canucks. He's a Burnaby boy and grew up with Vancouver as his favourite team, and has played well here in Vancouver. I don't see him leaving.

Also, I doubt Gaborik will jump ship either. Everyone else I more or less agree with.

I am sure he will get a lot of attention from the KHL clubs. There's no russian goalie in the KHL who is as good as the Bulin Wall in terms of skills. However, his last season was solid and he may get offers from the NHL clubs as well, so it's up to him(and his wife :laugh:) where he wants to continue his career.
