I think you've got to sign the guy, even if it takes a 5-7 mil contract.
Yeah, he's not perfect, but hell, Crosby's got a puddin'head. Ovechkin Disappears. Stamkos don't do defense. Who's game in the NHL doesn't have warts (Malkin maybe)? And those guys ain't going to be available.
This is the time to take a calculated risk on a guy who could be a dynamic offensive force in this league. Which we have never had, and there's no one in the pipeline that projects to be one. If it crashes and burns, at least we were swinging for the fences.
Everyone knows that this team is better with Radulov on the team. Even players who might be on the fence about signing/resigning here.
Of course, if the KHL throws monopoly money at the guy, I hope we pass.
