NHL instead of Switzerland - Pierrick Dubé to return to North America

Pierrick Dubé will probably not be moving to Switzerland. The 25-year-old forward has terminated his contract with KHL club SKA St. Petersburg and will reportedly return to North America. According to journalist Stefen Rosner (“The Hockey News"), Dubé will sign a contract with the New York Islanders. 

Media reports in recent days suggested that Dubé was looking to move to Switzerland. The French-Canadian dual citizen had been particularly linked with SC Bern.

This season, Dubé has played for Traktor Chelyabinsk (21 games, 14 points) and SKA St. Petersburg (seven games, two points) in the KHL.
