He knows English, he just doesn't like doing interviews.

Considering all this, how many NHL Franchises do you see lining up for that package?

If he's only asking for 4-5M, almost every team will be in on him. He's going to not only ask for, but get $6M+. Ville Leino got $4.5M for six years last year, when his
career totals were less than what Semin has done in individual seasons.
