Sounds speculative from Pronman. Not sure why the Wild wouldn't sign him but they really can't do it right now with the 50-contract limit. (Worth asking why Adam Vay, for one, has a contract before KK.) Kahkonen would immediately be the number three guy in the system when he signs.
I'm sure others noticed but nice production off the bat for Nick Swaney over the weekend with a couple of assists.
Wouldn't be shocking at all to me if KK doesn't have much interest in riding buses in the AHL and fighting for playing time, when he's got a starting spot at home in Liiga where he'd make comparable money to the AHL portion of an ELC, and is close to being a UFA that can pick the best opportunity for himself.
