I caught his interview with Steinberg on the Fan last night. He is all in on north America. "Ever since I was little boy it's my dream to win Stanley Cup" , "I am excited to come to flames...a team with big history, it is exciting that they like me", "I want to say thank you to Hamilton, they did everything to help me, settle anything I needed", etc
Even the Jason scout guy this morning echoed this, he's all in on north america and the NHL , and has no desires about the KHL. Speculation a bit that he feels he owes his parents and family for helping him get here, he is likely a guy that is sending money back home to support his family. Note: I don't have confirmation or certainty with this, sounded a bit speculative from Jason.
