There was a feeling that Philadelphia didn’t really have need him now, they need the rights. They would be contacted with him, invited to a training camp – usually done like that.

I see a danger there: the situation is borderline, everyone can interpret it in their own way. I would not want the NHL to use this situation as a precedent in the future when signing players with existing KHL contracts. We live in a world where anything is possible.
