We wrote this exact headline back on December 15th, 2020 and it is relevant again almost two years later as goalie prospect Mikhail Berdin will be heading to Sochi according to reports today. Apparently in May of 2022 SKA reacquired Berdin’s rights which is why they were able to deal them back to Sochi today. Quite the ping-pong game with Berdin between these two clubs.

It was announced at the beginning of this month that Berdin would not be staying in North America but the Jets would retain his rights and he would be able to sign with a team in the KHL.

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
