Ottawa should trade him and tell him to live in the Gleb(e) even if it would be help to get the rink at times and it seems to be mostly old people who live there.

Only two KHL games this season, spending most of the year in the VHL.

What have Canes seen to sign him?

Where is he going to play?

Are the Canes planning on having an AHL team this year?

According to a Russian poster in the prospects thread, once they knew he was coming to NA, they demoted him from the KHL. If true, I can’t say I blame them.

Trikozov had 21 pts in 39 VHL games so it's not a clear cut case of a guy being too good for that league, as it is with some players. He's still only 19 and there's very few players that age in the KHL.

Weird he didn't send him to GULAG...

Yes new policy, they feed players to Russian bear if they try to leave the country.

Trikozov has tools few have: good size, can skate and shoot, and it doesn't look like he has problems with IQ. But in the MHL (yeah, weak league as people here say) playoff quaterfinals his team lost the series, despite started it with two wins, and Trikozov didn't look great in those games lost.

How would you compare him to Ponomaryov?

Hard to say, I haven't watched Ponomarev for really long. Honestly I don't follow Trikozov that close either. I watched him a few times, he really looked impressive sometimes, almost like young Malkin. But then you understand he's not Geno, he tends to disappear in games way too often.

Aren't they also have tigers?

From what I read, he had ice time cut and demoted because he was indicating he was planning on coming to NA sooner rather than later.

Demoted from where? He was never an established KHLer.

He actually had VHL his ice time increased around the New Years after a terrible mid-season slump.

He was a recent second round pick and is willing to sign before committing to an unknown future amount of time in Russia. There is no out clause because there isn’t a transfer agreement and he is the same age as kids aging out of Canadian juniors this season. If you get tricky then for all you know, in two years he is established and will only sign with some nhl ice time assurances and it’s messy because now the khl team can offer him more money and a bigger role. There is not much reason not to sign him if he is willing to sign unless they were concerned about total number of contracts.
