Allan Walsh represents these two and had the following to say yesterday:

I was informed of internet report Petr Sykora negotiating with Magnitogorsk (KHL) for last 4 wks. Totally false. There has been no contact.

Also, informed of report that Miro Satan received 2 year offer from Bary’s Astana (KHL). Again, no truth. Who makes up this stuff?
