Makes sense as it's the place where he may get a chance to play regularly. The only reason this guy will get an NHL contract is because of where he was drafted because if he was a guy that was picked in say the 4th round of his draft he would be lucky to get an AHL contract based on his play. When you are a one dimensional forward and can only put up 9 points in 40 NHL games you probably need to start planning for a career in Europe.
