Yesterday Blueshirt Bulletin tweeted that Ikka Heikkinen signed with Avangard Omsk, however today, Laurie Carr at Beyond the Blueshirts reports that Heikkinen has actually signed with the KHL's Siber Novosibirsk.
Here is Heikkinen in an interview Carr was able to obtain...
Ilkka, how did the choice of continuing your career with Sibir come about?
- I had before me the choice of playing in the NHL or KHL, but the Rangers only offered me a two-way contract, which means they can send me to play in the AHL at any moment. I decided that the KHL is the best league for me, and Sibir offered the best terms from the KHL.
...with Carr's extensive knowledge of the KHL I'm going to go with her report.
