2024-25 Hurricanes Prospects and Minors Thread

It's a great sign that he may actually come over here and play. I couldn't help but think there was a chance that he would stay over there for whatever reason.

I would now be very surprised if he didn’t come over after the KHL playoffs.

Chicago Wolves last week:

Mar 13 Manitoba W 4-3 Tokarski with the win (came on in relief of Spencer Martin at 7:18 of the 2nd period) Fensore, Suzuki, Seeley and Austin Wagner with the goals.
Mar 15 Hershey L 5-0 Tokarski with the loss (pulled after allowing 4 goals in 30 minutes).
Mar 16 Hershey L 5-2 Khazheyev with the loss. Suzuki and Heimosalmi with the goals

Chicago is still pretty locked into 4th place in the AHL Central division. 7 points behind 3rd place, 7 points ahead of 5th place.

2 home games this week. Fri/Sun v. Texas (the 2nd place team in the Central div)
 
This article is primarily about Habs prospect Ivan Demidov not being released by SKA St. Petersburg. But tucked away near the bottom is a tidbit about Alexander Nikishin.

Take Alexander Nikishin, the captain of the club and the top prospect of the Carolina Hurricanes. After his many years of service to the organization, his representatives and SKA have come to an agreement that he would be able to leave early to join the Carolina Hurricanes for the NHL Playoffs.

“Unlike Alexander Nikishin, whom SKA agreed to release early for the NHL, Demidov does not have this option due to his MHL eligibility,” said the source on the subject.

SOURCE: "Unlike Nikishin, Demidov Does Not Have This Option" – How Soon Ivan Demidov Can Join The Montreal Canadiens

Montreal Canadiens prospect Ivan Demidov’s contract doesn’t expire until May 31, 2025 and it doesn’t look like he’s going to be able to make the jump to the NHL this season

Let's say that happens. How does this work? Do the Canes just roll the dice and dress him for the playoffs? Give him a look first then decide what to do with him?

Because of his age, he can only sign a 2 year ELC. If he plays this year, he’ll have to be re-signed after next season, along with Blake, Nadeau and Morrow. All will be under team control, none will be arbitration eligible. Will burning a year be a condition of signing, as it was with the college 3 last year? Who knows.

I think the Canes will need to sign Nikishin and burn that ELC season and I suspect that they've already promised him that will happen. That gets him to a real contract sooner and he'll want that if he can get it ... and he's holding the cards. As for playing him right away ... God knows. You'd have to get him in, see what kind of shape he's in, see if he can cover man to man in the zone ... then you figure it out.
 
The KHL regular season ends Sunday. SKA St Petersburg is 6th in the conference. If they get bounced in the first round and we have a deal worked out with Nikishin we should be able to get him into a few games before the playoffs to see what we have in the extremely short term.
 
With the differences transferring to NA and to RBA's system, just get him over, get him practicing and make no promises he'll play this year barring injuries.

This ... and for God's sake, let's resist the urge to over-hype this. Nikishin's real impact will be on next season's defense group, NOT this season's. Even if he ends up playing this spring. It is absolutely unreasonable to expect any player to be at or near his best in these circumstances.
