After moving from Medveščak to the Continental Hockey League , Kristan received no new contract with the club and went to HK Nitra in the Slovakian extra league and achieved the second-best catch quota in the league in the 2013/14 season . Nevertheless, he left the club after a year and moved to HC Pardubice in the Czech extra league in 2014 .
