Sergei Fedorov is Un-retiring!

He talked about this in interviews last year, that he was sitting out because of his back but was not officially retired. Guess he feels the back is ready to go. Unfortunately that means no chance at the Winter Classic Alumni game something he was committed to last year before it was wiped out by the lockout. Still hold out hope his jersey will be retired in Detroit, thought that event might start the healing process with a lot of the fence sitters on him.
But great to see, look forward to checking out a CSKA game sometime soon and seeing #91 fly around.

lol
he's the GM of CSKA who are worse off with bad luck/injuries this year than...anyone ever I think
he also just signed David Nemirovsky who hasn't played hockey for 2 years
it's desperation

Fedorov did lose a ton of his money, because he got scammed by his money manager.

It is unknown just how much money he recouped as a lot of men were in similar suits against Joseph Zada. While an extremely rich person, not much has been written about how this suit turned out and he was not the only one pursuing money.
I hope Sergei is not back just because of money, he did state openly he wanted to continue playing in other interviews last year but his health (back) prevented him last season and he jumped at the chance to manage CSKA. But the fortune many believe Sergei has isn't quite there. He was cheated out a lot of his American money and there were rumors for years that he had to fork over some of his early NHL earnings to less than desirable Russian businessmen.

This sucks, now he won't be in town for the alumni game. Wish Tampa would fire Yzerman so he would participate. Add in Probert and Burr having passed away and nor going to be there and Vladdy obviously unable this is going to be boring. Wooo we got Lidstrom the most boring super star ever.

He's gotta be doing pretty well you would think. He made a ton while in Detroit and his endorsement deals. Any idea what he was being paid to play in the KHL before? I would imagine he had a pretty nice deal as he has to be a huge draw there.

You do realize that he won't be getting paid, right? He's the team's GM.
As for his money, he lost all he had to that guy, but he made 4M with the Caps and then over 10M his 3 seasons in the KHL, so he'll be alright.

I understand he still has some, my point is there are people that think he is still walking around with the amount he really should have or don't understand just how much money was taken from him. Really is a shame, have not heard an update on how much he can recoup if any.

Players will have a chance to hit a general manager
I hope he won't hold it against them afterwards.

I hope he plays several games ... if he plays in Prague on the 19th, I will drive there immediately and witness Fedorov's greatness for the first time with my own eyes!!!!
