The Colorado Avalanche are in desperate need of help for their top six and Alexander Radulov seemed to be a great fit. He does have obvious character issues that are the reason why he did not stay in Nashville, but his talent is also undeniable. The 29-year-old Russian has recorded 158 goals and 463 points in 369 KHL games to this day and his contract expires in after this season. Unfortunately, CSKA Moscva CEO Igor Esmantovich wants to shatter Colorado fans’ dreams.
According to the Russian website championat.com, who had started the first rumors back in May, Esmantovich said that Radulov will remain with CSKA.
