Sure it might be possible at some point but Finnish hockey is very different from Swedish. As long as the members rule the Swedish clubs, a club would have to be saved from certain bankruptcy for the members to even consider moving to the KHL at this point. Basically a Jokerit situation where an owner just decides to sell to rich russians is impossible, since you cant own a SEL team.
The only way I see possible in a short term future is a new team not tied to the icehockey federation at all, but I am not sure if that Is possible. Or maybe a team from the lower leagues.

Leafs can sign him in 2 years, then they can have a #1 centre and good ol' Toronno boy.
He'll have a stroke.
He said the loud part quiet and the quiet part loud
If the KHL starts acquiring real talent there needs to be a cup winners cup with the stanley cup winners and the gagarin cup winners

He can stay in the Kovalchuk Hockey League for eternity.
ONLY JAGR CAN COME BACK, REMEMBER?
That already exists/existed for a short time. It's called the Victoria Cup. Winner of the NHL (optimally, but it's been more of a preseason game so far... Rangers 08 and Hawks 09) plays the winner of a tournament where the top teams from all the European leagues participate (think like the Champion's League in soccer).
I know this because the European Winner in 2009 (ZSC, Switzerland) beat the NHL winner (Blackhawks). (They won it the season that followed, but still
)Big part due to the game being in Zurich on European Ice and the Hawks probably being less motivated, but still. The format exists, and could be competitive.

We can only hope.
I'll take the under. The thing about KHL contracts is they have a number on them, but the amount of money you actually receive is another matter.

Ilya Kovalchuk can make $20 million per season with SKA? Can't blame him 4 years can make up that $77 million.

It's not a long game, and it's very easy to play in 10-15 minute sessions.
edit: Come to think of it, I never finished Hotline: Miami.

I haven't received my code yet, just my receipt, fingers crossed I hope. I would get more but I don't want to abuse it like some people are right now, plus I need to get some sleep here. As of now I'm not even sure if mine will go through or get cancelled. Sorry man.
Yeah reading up on it, sounds like everyone except the very fast responders' orders are getting cancelled. Oh well. Thanks anyway.
