3 years, million a year with bonuses for games played or points or some similar carrot. Just something minor for positive reinforcement.
The KHL is in awful shape right now. It the least of my worries.
I'm not worried about the KHL because Grigs has repeatedly stated his goal/dream is to play in the NHL. Because of his waiver status next season he will be in the NHL. I can't imagine with his goal/dream in sight that he bolts for the KHL.
It all depends on what offer he'll get from Buffalo. I think 1-1.5M one way will be enough for him to be sure that the team needs him. With anything less and two-way, he's as good as gone. But I personally think 1 or 2 years in the KHL will make wonders for him.
So more then Tyler Ennis and his second contract and he has 3 goals in the NHL.
Am I missing something?
Ennis cap hit on his bridge was $2.812M
Look at something like $1.9M, $2.6M. $3.5M---cap hot $2.67M

Before their bridge deals
Ennis -------> 140gms 38g 54a 92pts
Foligno -----> 135gms 18g 33a 50pts
Grigorenko -> 43gms 3g 5a 8pts. (could change later in the year)
How are you coming to the conclusion that Grigs should be get money near what the other two got?

Foligno in 121 g 12 25 37 ( ignoring the end of 11/12)
Grigirenko would be around 8g 13 pts given his scoring rate. If you gave him 15 min per game at least and getting 3rd line or higher ice time and PP time he would have better stats.
Grigirenko does have talent. You low ball him he goes to the KHL or gets an offer sheet.
He can be signed to an offershert at 3yr/$10M and only cost a team a 2nd round pick.
TM set the benchmark with Foligno.

Are you trying to be Grigs agent? This is the craziest thing I've ever heard.
Is Grigorenko even offer sheet eligible?
I think it's pretty much guaranteed that Grigorenko is going to demand an overpayment. Of course he should accept the QO, but I wouldn't mind seeing 3 years/$1.5m AAV to keep him in the organization and keep him motivated.
He's not going to the KHL. He's guaranteed a NHL roster spot next season because of his waiver status. Why would he pass up realizing his goal? For money? He's currently making 70k in the AHL and working on his game to make it to the NHL. Next season he will make around 900k at least. Why would he suddenly leave for money after finally making the NHL? It makes no sense.
Even if his contract is two way it won't even matter. He will never see the AHL after this season because he would never pass through waivers. He'll either be a Sabre or traded. He will make whatever his NHL salary is.
There is another reason - his elder brother plays for CSKA, on the 1st line with Radulov and Da Costa. So you can imagine the temptation.

With the falling value of the rubble and the KHL's inability to pay their players, its doubtful the KHL is a legit threat to take anyone
