Any chance Bashkirov get back into the KHL this year? Also Korostin back to AHL this year??
I think Bashkirov is done - he had a chance with Lada when they were in a free fall and did nothing, he should thank his dad for a career ruined. Korostin was somewhat ok for one of the weakest teams in the VHL - not sure what his plans are.
Maybe a bit off topic but I thought someone here could answer this, was Semin really 5'11 175 when drafted or was this a typo? I'm also thinking since he is from Russia they may not have had any measurements and there was some unfamiliarity I don't know.
What do the KHL congnescenti think of Kirill Petrov? He scored 19 pts for Khanty-Mansiisk, right? How does he look? Would '12-'13 in the AHL and then '13-'14 in the NHL be a realistic goal? ( I like the fact that his THN profile says he has a "flair for the dramatic"; sounds fun to watch ). Thanks

I haven't heard anything from him indiciating a move to NA, I think if he's a regular in Kazan' - he stays in Russia. While two years ago he went to the Isles' training camp - this year I think he didn't cross the pond.

But Khanty-Mansiisk is different from Kazan, right? Or do you just mean 'a regular in the KHL?' BTW, Did he leave because he felt pressure playing for his hometown team? I was kind of hoping that the only reason he didn't come to rookie camp was because he knew he was commited to his KHL team for '11-'12.

no he was gonna transferre to the NHL 'cause he hasn't been getting a chance in Kazan', so mean what I had said. He left to Yugra, 'cause it was an illegal in the KHL rent a player move (sugar-coated into a trade) so he can get PT and not bolt to NA.
Kirill Petrov
he has solid TOI this season, so I dont see any reason why to move to NA.
I read somewhere that club considers rebuilding of team and IMO Petrov should be included in this plan.
EDIT:
At the moment he leads club stats in points, 9 games, 4+2, 6 pts

rebuilding is right, they have a lot of young guys: Petrov, Bocharov, Golubyev, Yarulin slightly older Lemtyugov, Darzinsh, Bodrov
you kidding me, right? on a rookie entry-level contract [ELC] as a 3rd round (correct me if I am wrong too lazy to research where he got picked)????
I don't think there's a player on the main kazan' team making under 500k with a much lower tax bracket.
No, not kidding. If you check the CBA (http://www.nhl.com/cba/2005-CBA.pdf), you will see that as a 2008 draft pick, NYI could offer him $875K base salary that he could double with performance and signing bonuses. The CBA doesn't say anything about a lower max for later draft picks. And he will turn 22 before signing any contract with the Isles, which means his ELC only has to be for 2 years. After that, he will be a free agent and make the big bucks... if he's really that good.
I suspect he will sign a contract that says that he can go back to Kazan if he doesn't make the NYI NHL roster
). Thanks
