    Default Nabokov and SKA terminates contract

    SKA canceled the contract with Yevgeny Nabokov with the consent of both parties. The reason - family circumstances.

    Does Nabokov try to return to NHL now? Any team looking for a goalie? One big problem is that he would have to clear waivers if he tried to return to NHL this year so any team signing him would have to take a chance and risk him to waivers before they could get him.

    That was my first reaction. Hmmmm....maybe the circumstances involve the Lightning family? Stranger things have happened.

    He'd fit right in. Nabokov's stats from KHL this year: 3.02 GAA and 0.888 SV%. And that's while playing with the 8th best team in the league.

    The Lightning sit with about 9 Mil in cap space too. This is perfect. I'd love to see a good goaltender on Tampa.

    I can see it now!

    Apparently though, Nabokov will have to clear waivers if he signs as a UFA.

    Default Nabakov released by SKA -- return possible?

    http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=345338

    I grabbed him, figuring what the hell
    activating him to drink vodka on the steppes can't be worse that playing Brodeur

    seriously though...any chance he might return? Who could even afford him?
    how little might he take?

    Caps, Bolts even Sharks??
    interesting to speculate

    Now that his return seems imminent, what has to happen for him to be added onto Yahoo?

    Also, how does re entry waivers work?

    "The contract has been annulled by mutual consent because of family reasons," the club said on its website (http://www.hc-ska.ru) without giving any details.

    Interesting. Everyone said 4 yrs in the KHL...you'll never see him again. And less than 6 months later the opportunity is there.

    Well, Tb is 18th on the waiver wire. Fat chance he lasts that long.

    you never know, they arent a lot of teams with the cap space to take on a Nabokov type contract and there are also a lot of teams that are already set in net. He was available in the summer and there was little to no interest out side of SJ as far as I remember.

    I scooped him up just to see if he signs with anyone in the next month. When they say family reasons I'm betting it's because the fam wants to go back to North America (I read somewhere his wife is American). No doubt he'd be an attractive option as the trade deadline nears as teams will be on the hunt for a goaltending boost for the playoffs.

    He just better return soon because a big chunk my team isn't in the league haha

    very interesting and there are teams in need of goaltending so you never know I think that the Caps/Bolts are the 2 teams that I could see pursuing this.
