I'm pretty sure that Pilut is a US citizen, so there wouldn't be any visa issues anyway.

The PA and the league are dealing with making sure his contract situation with the KHL is above board. That's it. That's all.

And yeah, he's a dual citizen of the US and Sweden.

I know.. I've been king of the dumb hot takes for a wile now... I'll tone it down

Besides the ignorance, you do know he's Swedish yeah?...

I know it was dumb.. not my worst but up there..

I made the decision to be more optimistic now that the team has turned over, but man old, burned in habits are hard to break ..

It took all of Adams strength to not raise his eyebrow when he said 'a document was produced'. NHL and NHLPA has final say if that documentation is suitable to move forward.

He's not allowed to play in the KHL. Sweden, Finland, and Latvia have banned their countrymen from participating in the KHL.

He's allowed. But good luck returning to other European leagues, or the NT after that. Similarly the general public, and media, will dislike you.

 

[Ehran]

Done.

 

[EichHart]

So who is he replacing? Thought our top 6 was locked already? AHL?

Hes competing for the 6/7/8 spot or he ends up in the AHL

He'll be in the mix at best as the 6/7 but seems like he'll be battling it out in Rochester for first recall with Clague, Davies, and Priskie.
