NHL free agent Tony DeAngelo will be continuing his playing career in Russia.
The 28-year-old defenceman signed a one-year deal with SKA St. Petersburg on Monday after going unsigned in North America this summer.
DeAngelo appeared in 31 games with the Carolina Hurricanes last season, recording three goals and 11 points. He added two assists in nine playoff games before his team was eliminated by the New York Rangers in the second round.
