Kuznetsov’s agent refutes report of Ex-Capitals star heading back to Russian KHL



“Anything is possible, but it’s too early to talk about Evgeny Kuznetsov’s return to Russia,” Babaev told championat.com in Russian, which has been translated to English. “It’s not even clear why this information arose because he has a contract with Carolina for another year. But there was an appeal from SKA. They called and said that if Evgeny returns, they are ready to talk. … But it’s too early to say that he will return to SKA or any other team. … He is primarily considering options in the NHL. If he doesn’t like something or is not satisfied with the option, then there will be conversations with KHL clubs. But I can’t say yet when this will happen.”

    Based on this comment, it sounds like Kuzy is looking for an out to move on from Carolina
