Former NHLer Gets Russian Contract Terminated
A few weeks after re-signing with the KHL's Barys Astana, forward Michael Chaput has agreed to a mutual contract termination with the team:
Reports say that the contract termination was due to Chaput needing a much longer recovery time than expected from an injury.
"#Barys Astana (#KHL) and forward 🇨🇦Michael Chaput have mutually cut ties just a few weeks after signing a new 1-year contract.
Chaput, 31, played just 10 games last season due to an ongoing injury. It was discovered that his recovery and rehab will take significantly longer than previously expected - resulting in the termination." Hockey Worldwide said in an Instagram post.
