This is what erks me. The KHL has no problem taking a player under contract in the NHL from us. But when a player is under contract for them, they fight to the nail to keep him or ask for mass compensation. I just don't get how Ramo would never be allowed to leave his team, but Wilson is brought in with open arms.
I also don't see this as a good thing for the flames. He would have helped the heat out if he did not make the big club.
