I also thought of the Panthers. And, yes, I think it would be a better scenario for him.

As for the KHL argument – this is not a choice between NHL and KHL for someone like Horak, but a choice between AHL and KHL. KHL pays more money and provides a better lifestyle to its players than the AHL player lifestyle. I am sure this is a factor for many players.
