Not good. If the trade isn't voided, how can he show up in the dressing room after this?

A guy that clearly doesn't want to be there - just like another Russian who was forced to go there (Nabakov). Maybe they can flip him to Ottawa?

Lubo is Slovak!

D'oh! Sounds Russian... very Ruski-ish.

So was his NTC with Anaheim or Edmonton? Cause if it was with EDM, then it would be like the Heatley scenario in which it was voided after he waived it to go to Anaheim (or SJ in DH's case).

As I recall Heatley's wasn't voided when he went to SJ. Sharks traded him because there was a brief window when his NMC became a limited NTC where he could supply 10 teams he could not be traded to.

Minnesota wasn't one of them so Sharks could trade him without his consent.
