Therefore, in January he moved to Metallurg Schlobin in the Belarusian extra league . In early September 2010 he signed a one-year contract with HC Valpellice from the Italian A1 series . After another season in the top Italian league, this time in the service of WSV Sterzing Broncos , the contract was signed with HK Kompanjon-Naftohas Kiev in summer 2012 .
In the 2013/14 season he first played in the domestic Latvian ice hockey league for HK Kurbads before moving to the Rødovre Mighty Bulls in the Danish Metal Ligaen in January 2014 .
