Montreal Canadiens To Terminate Arsen Khisamutdinov’s Contract

December 10, 2021 at 2:30 pm CDT | by Gavin Lee 3 Comments

Dec 10: Khisamutdinov has cleared waivers and will have his contract terminated.

Dec 9: The Montreal Canadiens have announced that they have mutually agreed to terminate the contract of Arsen Khisamutdinov, presumably placing him on unconditional waivers today to do so. Khisamutdinov is in the second season of a two-year, entry-level contract signed in 2020. A termination would make him a free agent and clear the way for a return to the KHL.

It’s easy to see why the 23-year-old forward would want out, given he’s been playing at the ECHL level so far this season. After 15 unspectacular appearances for the Laval Rocket last season, Khisamutdinov has five points in 10 games for the Trois-Rivieres Lions in 2021-22. That’s not going to keep many KHL talents in North America, though the young forward hasn’t really even proved himself at that level either. Selected in the sixth round of the 2019 draft (after going undrafted previously) he has 41 games of KHL experience under his belt, with eight points.

For Montreal, this is actually a positive, as it gives them an extra contract slot to work with moving forward. The team is currently at 48 of their 50 allotted contracts, with one more to be opened once Khisamutdinov clears and the termination is executed tomorrow.

    Lesson learned. Do not sign any player who’s name you can’t pronounce

    Random fact: his brothers name is Berglari. His parents were pyromaniac house robbers who couldn’t spell.
