Hockey agent Dan Milstein, representing the striker in the NHL”Vancouver Canucks » Andrei Kuzmenko told the details of the conclusion of a new two-year contract of the Russian with the Canadian club.
— We focused on a two-year contract. A relay contract was signed, because in the NHL the biggest contracts are signed from 27 to 29 years old. In two years, the salary cap in the NHL will increase by about 15 to 20%. Andrey will also have over 200 NHL games by then, so he can count on a completely different deal. In addition, we will sign a long-term contract.
We have been talking to Vancouver for several months, everything has intensified for a week and a half. It’s a good contract for both parties. We wish Andrey the best of luck, keep improving and keep adapting to North American hockey,” Milstein told The Championship.
This season marks Kuzmenko’s NHL debut. In 47 NHL regular season games, the Russian scored 43 (21+22) points.
