On the Chicago Blackhawks …
Scott Powers of The Athletic Chicago: The Chicago Blackhawks won’t be signing Russian Maxim Shalunov this season after he signed with CSKA for three years back in April, but source saying he could sign with them before the three-year deal expires.
“He’s under contract, but at the same time, wait and see,” the source said. “It’s always a changing landscape with KHL contracts from year to year.”
The source added:
“Contracts in the KHL are strange. People can get out of them very easily.
