Dominik Kubalik has finally found a team, but it's not in the NHL. The Czechia native has returned to the Swiss National League on a one-year deal and signed with HC Ambri-Piotta, the team he played for before coming over to the NHL.Dominik Kubalik has signed with HC Ambrì Piotta in Switzerland -- marking a return to the club after five seasons in the NHL.— Chris Johnston (@reporterchris) September 4, 2024Kubalik recorded 25 goals and 57 points in 50 games in 2018-19 and was named MVP while with HC Ambri-Piotta before joining the Chicago Blackhawks, scoring 30 goals and 46 points in 68 games, and finishing as a finalist for the Calder Trophy.Kubalik's NHL career went downhill from there, only reaching 20 goals once in the following four seasons and ending last season in Ottawa with just 11 goals and 15 points in 74 games.
