The player has to want to sign too. Maybe Rieder just wanted play in the east.
He played his junior in Kitchener and that's where he met his girlfriend, so it might be as simple as wanting to be closer to home for her.
Also, games in the Eastern Time Zone start at midnight in Germany rather than 2 or 3 AM like Pacific and Mountain games do. So, it would be easier for his family to watch him play.
