Golden Knights sign KHL F Shipachyov

[Polish-Hammer]

Golden Knights sign KHL F Shipachyov. $9 mil over 2 seasons.

Shipachyov was 3rd in KHL scoring behind Kovalchuk and Mozyakin. He was 4th in KHL scoring the previous season. I should note he plays for SKA St. Petersburg which is a stacked team.

For Vegas I think this is an amazing signing.

Stats for SKA players below.

I heard that on Stellick and Simmer this morning.

Wow, for once something from the NHL that goes against the false history of the original 6.
