United found this and posted it in the Nichushkin thread. I thought it should go here as well in case people aren't following both.

Valeri Nichushkin says he likes #Flyers & #Rangers most of all, wants to spend summer in NA to train hard #NHLdraft2013

Igor Kleyner ‏@IgorKleyner
Nichushkin is not doing himself any favors re #NHLdraft2013 by stating he will only go to NA to play in the NHL, not minors. Nichushkin's plan for summer is a short vacation in Turkey after U18 WJC and then training all summer long in the US

Stay away. Stay far away. Last time we drafted a prospect that really liked the Rangers? Tom Erixon

I think the Flames will be really turned off by his statement that he doesn't want to play in the minors. I had posed that question in the Nichushkin thread, will he go back to Russia if he's not ready and we try to send him to the minors?

Let's grab us a good Canadian or Scandanavian boy, not a primadonna Russian.
