Il a joué 9 matchs pour nous, obtenant une passe décisive. Nous avons envoyé un choix de cinquième ronde (#131) aux Sharks pour lui.

Also, he is an RFA and the Flames can give him a QO and retain his rights until his 27th birthday if they want (he is 23 right now).
Why do all of the Nikita’s hate us 🥲
Showing us why we historically don’t sign or trade for Russians.
1. I don’t think he is NHL ready yet, at best he is a #7 defense man in the NHL today.
2. The KHL is not necessarily a bad place to develop as a player. It is possible he could find another level while playing there.
3. The Flames will retain his rights. If he does improve in the KHL the Flames will be able to sign him at the end of this contract, or trade him to another team.
And he wasn’t good in those 9 games while here.
Buh-Bye!
Not a huge loss. I only remeber a few games he played last year.. and not for good reasons
