let these guys go, should put clause in players contracts that if they want to go to different leagues then they should be on the hook to pay what their under contract for...make them buy the remainder contract out, would not really want someone who says i dont want to play for you and now have them come back bc they have to

That gentlemen's agreement that was put into place no more than two weeks is really working out well.

I'm glad to see the IIHF follow through on their threats.

I wonder who Radulov will be traded to? I imagine the situation in Nashville would be rather unfriendly when he comes back...

Obviously the Wings won't get a division rival's player, but maybe the Leafs will nab him. He's a young, dynamic player- just the sort of kid Fletcher's looking for. Plus the Nashville management might look at it as a little bit of the old payback for jumping ship on them

How can the IIHL suspend players? What's to stop the KHL from letting radulov to palyer or something? (don't mean to sound like sirdrake...)

Yeah and those Toronto draft picks will always be high!

I might be wrong, but I thought the IIHF's threat was to suspend them from international tournaments. I don't think there's anything they can do to force Radulov to play in the NHL. That would be between the KHL and NHL.

We need to go after Fedor Fedorov.

That would please the people who want Fedorov on this team, and not disappoint those who are still angry at Sergei for leaving. Ingenious isn't it?

It's an individual punishment. The IIHF can block you from all international tournaments like the world championships and olympics not to mention the smaller Euro tournaments...

So, on top of the 2.33 mil. a year, Radulov also gets some extra vacation? Those IIHF bastards!

didnt he just get signed with the devils?

Jason Krog has been beating around the bush his entire career. I wonder if the contract he signed with Vancouver was an actual NHL contract, or just another trip to the minors (which is where he's best).
