TSN Insider Trading: Russian defenseman Slava Voynov would like to return to the NHL one day. He left NHL for Russia after a domestic assault incident.
Darren Dreger: It would be a lengthy process for Voynov that would start with applying for reinstatement. That isn’t expected to happen until his KHL season is over – late April or early May. It gets really complicated after that. The Los Angeles Kings still hold his rights. He’d have to meet with the NHL, and there could be an additional suspension if reinstated and there could be immigration issues.
