Why do players still go to KHL

I would bag groceries for $8/hr in any Western country before I'd go to Russia and work for 1 year @$3,000,000. No thanks.

LOL. Think the doctors were too busy prescribing themselves some Absolut. And I laugh not at the poor Kariya brother getting injured, but the doctors looking like they're taking him off in a bodybag to the morgue. Good luck in the KHL guys!

There was an ex-NHLer on OTR a week or so ago who played in the KHL last year. He mentioned some oddities about playing there. He said at one point he had a disagreement with someone about something (he wouldn't be specific) and ended up having a gun held to his head. He also mentioned that he got paid by a little old lady who showed up to the rink with a shopping bag full of cash. Seriously.

Nothing about the KHL screams "on the level". That includes their ex-KGB executive (VP I believe) getting a rape suspect out of trouble using questionable means.

Psh, I'd take the three mil.

You're a braver man than I. Ever spent anytime in Russia as an outsider known to have a bit of money? I haven't, but only because I heed warnings from friends who went before me.

There is a perfect solution for that.

Was it:

LOL. No, not so much the rape as the semi-veiled bribe-threats and "protection" schemes.

On the plus side, everyone I know comented on the reasonable price and high quality of the prostitutes. Hudler will have a good time if he isn't killed for his watch.

Oh yeah. You don't rent prostitutes in Russia-- you can buy far too cheaply. :thumbup:

The joke is on Huds, there are 10 metric hours in a Detroit hour.
