We're talkin age 15. I dont see nhl handing out millions to 15 year olds. When he does come over he'll only have 1 year on elc. Who knows what he would make on the KHL. All I said was you were being ignorant, which you were.
"Roubles are worthless" direct quote.
Let me do the math for you.
Michkov age 15 to 20 = collected approx 1mil
Bedard age 18 to 21 = minimum collects 2.7mil, can make up to 12mil.
Michkov signs elc at 21, so 3yr elc. He makes above by age 24.
Bedard signs bridge or max term to be locked up at age 22,and is much further ahead in terms of money than michkov despite him being paid since young as 15.
Lmk.
Roubles are worthless. Khl is arguably the best league after the NHL, yet the top paid players in the league make about 2mil/yr. Roubles tanked even further since the war. You're literally the ignorant one.
Hockey kids here don't make 200k a year as a 15yr old cuz the minimum age they can enter the NHL is 18. Not 15. They're in juniors or wherever until they get drafted and have the eligibility to enter the league, making league money. You're literally comparing apples and oranges.
It's like if I lived in some other country, with different laws and their min age to start work is 10. "I don't see any kids at 10 making money in murica" argument compared to murican kids starting work at 14. I still have no idea where you're trying to go with this. Call me ignorant, but so far you've proved my point further and it seems like you were the ignorant one, not realizing how underpaid these Russian athletes are.
