The KHL team Dinamo Riga announced today the signing of Martins Dzierkals for the coming season.
Dzierkals, on an AHL contract with the Marlies, played most of last season in the ECHL for the Orlando Solar Bears. He was a very successful forward there, but in four games for the Marlies, he remained pointless.
Dzierkals, who is 21, was drafted 68th overall in 2015 after playing one season in the MHL club (junior team) affiliated with Dinamo Riga. That season saw him put up .88 points per game.
He moved to the QMJHL the next year and played two seasons there, scoring at a little higher rate, as you should expect.
