Elliotte Friedman on Alexander Nikishin

Short version: The Canes made Nikishin untouchable in trade talks, they are very eager to sign him and have him come over, Russian contracts take time to figure out

This is basically what I’ve been trying to preach over the last 2 months These things take time

What I heard was he is already over here, got a place to stay at North Hills and had dinner at the Angus Barn Wine cellar.

Yeah, I hear all that... but my mailman said his wife's boyfriend's best friend saw Nikishin at the cookout drive thru off Capital Blvd this morning around 1AM. So who's really to believe here?

Does this clown ever report legitimate news He gives reports with inside information like I do

I don't get the rush tbh. It makes no sense to bring the kid over, and put him in an nhl PO situation with a language barrier and not knowing the system. Not to mention who is sitting (realistically). Sounds like a great way to start him off on a bad foot.
