A reputable member of the Canadiens organization, Nick Bobrov, assures that his contractual situation remains flexible.<\/p>\n
As reported by Marco D’Amico, the Canadiens seem to have good hope of seeing Gleb arrive in Montreal sooner than expected, because “Dan Milstein is a very good negotiator.”<\/p>\n
It is Pugachyov’s development pace that will dictate the next steps, and not any possible problem with his contract in the KHL.<\/p>\n
This flexibility opens several doors.<\/p>\n
“Nick Bobrov says that Gleb Pugachyov’s contract situation is flexible, as ‘Dan Milstein is a very good negotiatior.’<\/p>\n
But the 18-year-old’s developmental timeline will dictate next steps.”<\/p>\n
So it really seems to be a possibility!<\/p>\n
Gleb Pugachyov’s development will dictate the next steps<\/p>\n
It must be remembered how young the player is. At only 18 years old, Pugachyov still has all his time ahead of him.<\/p>\n
This flexibility suits the Canadiens well. Nothing forces the organization to rush the steps with a prospect of this age, but if he ever shows that he is ready sooner than expected, yes, he will sign with Montreal sooner than expected.<\/p>\n
Pugachyov also adds to a nice wave of prospects.<\/p>\n
The Canadiens are accumulating young talent, and nothing forces them to rush them all at once.<\/p>\n
His path continues for the moment in the KHL. That is where he continues to refine his game before a possible jump to North America.<\/p>\n
Let’s recall the young forward’s very particular profile.<\/p>\n
We are talking about a physical player, described as a steamroller by a KHL source.<\/p>\n
Rushing such a player would be a mistake, but it might be Pugachyov himself who, through his performances, ends up forcing the organization’s hand.<\/p>\n
