It seems as if it is becoming more and more of a trend in National Hockey League for players to leave the league and sign with their respective countries. Firstly it has been confirmed that Edmonton Oilers former starting goaltender will be leaving the NHL to head back to a league closer to his old town, where player salaries average could be near $200,000 where in the NHL the average is $3,000,000.
Now we have Alexander Radulov leaving the NHL, Radulov is currently making $6.25 MILLION in the NHL and has agreed to sign with a foreign team for $2 MILLION, Radulov ranks second in all-time KHL scoring with 427 points, behind Sergei Mozyakin.
Radulov has had multiple near 30-goal seasons in the NHL, but as of late he has struggled with his worst season with 4 goals scored in 71 games played- for $6.25 MILLION, Radulov must be laughing.
