Pierrick Dube scores first career KHL goal in Traktor Chelyabinsk debut

The 24-year-old former Washington Capitals winger scored Traktor's lone goal in their season-opening matchup with Lokomotiv Yaroslavl on Friday. With Traktor on a third-period power play down 1-0, Dubé pumped home a power-play one-time blast from Alex Ovechkin's office. Fellow former NHL talent Mikhail Grigorenko and Joshua Leivo provided the assists. Dubé skated on the team's second line with captain Alexander Kadeikin and Yegor Korshkov. He received 16:59 of total ice time in the eventual 2-1 shootout loss and also took a two-minute minor penalty for roughing.

Former NY Islanders first rounder extends professional career in Russia

The New York Islanders' 2014 first-round pick, Michael Dal Colle, has officially moved on from the NHL. The 29-year-old winger signed a two-year contract with Dinamo Minsk of the KHL, marking the latest chapter in a career that never quite lived up to its draft-day expectations. Dal Colle, selected fifth overall by the Islanders, was once projected as a top-line winger. Instead, he totaled just 21 points in 112 NHL games before his time with the organization ended after the 2021-22 season.
