Prospect Info: Kirill Kaprizov III - Still Waiting

[Nsjohnson]

Nice straw man argument. Even though you use the phrase “by your logic” you either don’t actually understand logic or you are being deliberately obtuse. In either case stop wasting my time.

You are the one on the iNterNetz. Quit wasting your own time?

I don’t know how a buyout works. Sure thing. I’ve been following and contributing to this thread for years. But I’m done here, certainly at this point you and I are not adding anything of substance.

What are you looking for? What’s your goal?

Like yeah, technically, it a possibility that he could have silently given notice that he plans to buy his contract out, it could have gone all this time without being leaked or reported, and he could be on the roster next season.

But what do you hope to gain by speculating in the infinitesimal chances of that? What’s your point?

Technically him buying out his contract isnt (with 18 months notice) isnt the ONLY way for him to get out of it. The team and player can agree to mutually terminate a contract, that has been done several times in the KHL. Still very unlikely, but from what Russo/etc have said, there is a small chance they mutually terminate the contract if CSKA wins the Gagarin Cup. Again, not likely, but a small chance.

 

[Wild11MN]

And for the record, CSKA is up 2-0 in the finals.

 

[DANOZ28]

im actually a smidge disappointed he only has 3G in 17 playoff games. regular season pace he should have 8G.

It'd be real nice to see Kaprizov add that penultimate feather in his cap.

 

[Wild11MN]

I'm assuming the last would be a Stanley Cup champion?

On whatever team we trade him to after he burns out here.

And world championship gold medal. Quadruple gold club? Goes down as the best player the Wild ever drafted, and he'll win it all when he's not a part of the Wild organization.

Yup.

Again, why would CSKA do that? That would be counter to their interests. If anything, CSKA would be more likeLy to try and re-sign Kaprizov to a new contract.

Perfect player for the Wild?

Because they know he wants to play in the NHL eventually, and by letting him go now, when the next lockout happens (which will happen) they could get him back for that final year at that time.

Again, infinitesimal chance at best, but one with logic behind it.

CSKA up 3-0 in the series. They won 2-0 today, KK didn't have a point but lead all CSKA forwards in TOI.

Did they release him from his contract yet?

 

[Jesus comma Brodin]

Did they release him from his contract yet?

As I have previously stated, there is a 50% chance he is released. Either he is OR he is not.

 

[2Pair]

As I have previously stated, there is a 50% chance he is released. Either he is OR he is not.

So, tomorrow then?

 

[Jesus comma Brodin]

So, tomorrow then?

See Above.

We can revisit on Friday when they win the Cup

 

[AKL]

As I have previously stated, there is a 50% chance he is released. Either he is OR he is not.

I like these odds

They give us a 50% chance to win the Cup next year

 

[Jesus comma Brodin]

You can't argue with it. Either we win, or we don't.

And yes, I have a degree in statistics.

 

[AJ Thelen]

They just won it.

 

[AKL]

They just won it.

So when does he sign here. Is it gonna be a Monday thing or...

 

[16thOverallSaveUs]

Get him an IV and a flight to minneaspolis tomorrow morning.

 

[Nsjohnson]

I really am not even so much as a lift of my pinky's hope up, but damn it I would freak the **** out if he said "Well, not much more to do, let's go play NHL hockey".

 

[kfan22]

Not sure why everyone is getting all excited there is no rumor anywhere on this from a credible source
