    Default [Rumor] Nichushkin to return to KHL

    This comes from the same guy that had the Sobotka news....

    Much speculation in Russian media that #Stars Nichuskhkin is returning to Traktor Chelyabisnk of #KHL. Will see where this goes.
    He had a very disappointing year failing to the 34 points he achieved in his rookie year. Seems like a perfect fit for the Stars.

    Wow. Glad I don't have any shares in him. He has the talent to step up and produce in the NHL. Would be a blow for Dallas.

    This rumor again. I'll believe it when I see it. As far as it being a blow to the Stars, not really. Look how he performed last season and how the team as a whole performed. They'll weather it just fine and if he does go the Stars still hold his exclusive rights.

    And who knows, maybe a year or two in the KHL will get him pointed back in the right direction.

    Good riddance.

    Selfish.

    (Not my thoughts. But get ready to start reading similar comments. Just because he's going to the KHL.)

    I am not worried. Dont forget he is an RFA with no leverage except the possiblity of the KHL. It is standard practice for many players these days.

    Sounds like his agent is using dirty slut tactics to get a better deal.

    Teams should be calling about his availability.

    I agree. Never bought into the massive hype. To me, his legit upside was always JVR if he reached it. The injuries early on were a main concern of mine as well.
