Guest Crymson Report post Posted June 6, 2012 There isn't the faintest chance that Nashville offered Radulov $9m per year, so I don't know why any of you are still making reference to that rumor. 4 MabusIncarnate, DatsyukianDangles122, T-Ruff and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sibiriak 84 Report post Posted June 7, 2012 I don't read Russian but when translated the article does say that it was Nashville that made the offer. I agree that a KHL team makes more sense throwing out that kind of money though. With no cap you can be as stupid as you want with your money. That article was dated April 9. Any rumor/speculation it was based on is certainly obsolete by now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Krayzie_Bone 58 Report post Posted June 7, 2012 What is the story with Radulov? I see people call him P.O.S. and everything but I do not know his story. Im not defending him I just somehow missed the stuff he has done. Can someone tell me what is the reason so many people hate him? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Im not defending him I just somehow missed the stuff he has done. Can someone tell me what is the reason so many people hate him? He signed his deal with Ufa in the KHL while still under contract with the Nashville Predators. So he bolted for more money while still contractually obligated to Nashville. Then, there's this... And then there's his antics in the Phoenix series that caused his suspension... I'd bet that Radulov's days in the NHL are done. I doubt that any team in the league would be willing to bring on his baggage. Especially when he can go back to his native Russia, get paid 3x more than he's really worth, and (likely) get his salary paid tax-free. 2 Z Winged Dangler and DatsyukianDangles122 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ami 273 Report post Posted June 8, 2012 (edited) I agree, I highly doubt the Preds actually offered that, but that was the rumor. It came from a Russian website, so it could be his agent trying to drive up his price. apparently, it was published on April 9th. here: http://www.belarushockey.com/nhl/news/news113494/ and it looks and sounds like a speculation.

How come the coach didn't do anything? He wouldn't play another minute if he did this in the NHL! What a jackass. Lets see him try that with someone like Dale Hunter...HEH HEH HEH!

I would have thought that was so much a given, that the Wings wouldn't consider this side-car mercenary... an article in TSN seems redundant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I never even gave thought to the Wings pursuing Rads. I'm not sure anyone except for whoever wrote that piece did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Red Wings Addict 787 Report post Posted June 10, 2012 It's intriguing to imagine Radulov on Datsyuk's wing to say the least. At the same time he does have some issues with the disciprine and who knows if he can get his head, for the most part, in the NHL and not the KHL. 1 Greatness=PavelDatsyuk reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dmitry Chesnokov of Yahoo is reporting that Radulov has inked a four-year deal with CSKA Moscow of the KHL that will pay him $9.2 million per year. He'll be back.
