Also I am 99% sure the Flames won't pick Nichushkin. Weisbrod says when they look for a player they want to be proud that player wheres the Flaming C, that he embodies the Calgary Flames. In no way does Nichushkin fit this sentiment at all, he is a selfish player who prioritizes himself as #1. No way do the Flames pick him.

Wait... so how do you know this? Have you met the guy? Are you basing that on some loosely translated quotes, or is this a generalization based on his nationality? If so, don't you think that's a little unfair? I hope you realize that the only way he was able to get out of his KHL contract was on the condition that he would be playing in the NHL. If not, he is apparently obligated to return. So him saying 'if it doesn't happen, i'm going back' may in fact mean that he has to, not that he wants to bolt, or doesn't care. Just saying..
