Is it a new rumor vs the one a couple days ago that only had to do w/ his rights transfer w/in the KHL? Dude is about to get paid in the NHL, doubt he goes back to Russia

He was apparently offered 3 years 18 million but turned it down and no, under no circumstance should Ovechkin be traded.

So with oshie getting 5.75, I wasn't too far off. Yes, if you look at the future of this franchise, you NEED to get rid of ovechkin and get picks back. Re-stock the cabinet while you have a competitive team still
