Chuck Fletcher will certainly take a look at this KHL star

One of the major area of concern for Chuck Fletcher heading into the summer is the lack of elite offensive player on the team. We know that the GM wants to retool aggressively this summer in order to be in the playoff race next season.

Of course, players like Johnny Gaudreau and Filip Forsberg are attractive for any team that wants to bolster its offense. But those options are expensive.

So what can Chuck Fletcher do? One of the options is to seek abroad to sign Andrei Kuzmenko. According to multiple reports, the 26-year-old winger wants to come in the NHL and has no specific team in mind. The only thing he wants is to have a defined role with the club who signs him.

This season, Kuzmensko was the second best scorer in the KHL with 53 points in 45 games with the SKA St. Petersburg. He will be eligible to sign a contract with an NHL team starting May 1st, so we could get an answer pretty soon.
