    This may all just be a ploy by Shipachev's agent to get him out of Vegas. The agent was greatly outsmarted by the Vegas GM. The agent thought Vegas would be a great place to play since there would be lots of ice time but Vegas never had any intention of playing him until they were able to move some of their players who were not waiver exempt.

    Here's an article explaining this theory that actually makes a lot of sense:

    Is Griffin Reinhart really worth all of this or whatever schlub that they may get a 7th round pick for?

    He signed in Vegas before the team had been drafted. Poor asset management by McPhee. I get he was outplayed by others on roster, but he’s gotta adjust to the North American game. And needs more then 3 games ffs. He is without a doubt the most talented player Vegas has........sorry had.

    So odd. If he's not going to stick amidst the Marchessaults, Lindbergs, and W. Karlssons of Vegas, how is he going to fetch much on the market.
    Vegas is off to a nice start, but strange to see them moving what should still be one of their most skilled players.
    And they marketed the heck out of him. For a while, the Golden Knights Twitter was all about "Ship"

    Him wanting out is one possibility, but then why sign there initially?

    Signing a UFA with the purpose of screwing him sounds like an excellent way of damaging your reputation with future free agents and their agents. This conspiracy theory doesn't make sense to me.

    I agree. That article and writing style is actually very Eklund/Hockey Buzz in style.

    Is it possible that Ship Has just not played very well during pre season and the team felt he should start in the AHL (like tons of othe KHL and European transfers before him) to get used to NA hockey?

    I dunno but that seems to me to make a lot more sense than all this talk about the Knights not wanting to lose utterly useless assets to waivers.

    European players being sent to AHL happens all the time. Jerabek is there for MTL this season. Haapala is there for FLA. And I'm sure there's plenty of others.

    Ship was only ever sent to the A on paper though, right? He still hasn't played a game for Chicago. I'm not sure if he's even practiced with them or even been to the city.

    If Ship was fully into playing in NA, he would have accepted the AHL stint and actually play for them. I know he was promised NHL time, but he's making 3mill (2mill signing bonus, 3mill salary) to play in the AHL right now. He should have taken this setback as a way to prove himself. Dude had 2 seasons of high production in the KHL, he's not amazing.

    Unless I'm really hurting for a C2 (or offensive C3), I'm not sending a serious offer for him. If he's not taking his first roadblock well, what happens when he hits his first scoring drought?

    The first time he was "sent down" was on paper because he was waiver exempt and they had too many players. He never actually went to Chicago and did not play for them. I believe now its a real demotion. Word on the street is he will refuse to report and be suspended like Drouin was a year ago or so. Which would be stupid. Again, just more of the clown show that is the Vegas GM. This sort of crap asset management will come back to bite them over and over.

    It's no excuse for what McPhee has gotten himself in, but if Shipachyov accepts the demotion with an open mind, this isn't a news story.

    Has it been confirmed that he's been told to report to Chicago or face suspension?

    TSN article here:

    http://www.tsn.ca/vgk-will-allow-age...chyov-1.896094

    It states that if he doesn't report he is likely to be suspended.
