The defender, who has spent the past three seasons in the Latvian capital, has played a total of 152 games in the KHL league. The Lithuanian, who scored 18 performance points (7 goals and 11 assists) this year, hoped to remain on the Dinamo team, but the new team coach Peteris Skudra did not see a representative of our country in his vision for the future.

“He was waiting for an offer to extend the contract in Riga this summer. However, the new coach announced that he was not seen on the team,” the 29-year-old hockey player said of the split with the club.

According to the captain of the Lithuanian national team, the current situation in the hockey market is complicated, but he hopes to complete the search for a future club in the near future.

“It is definitely not the best time to enter the free agent market: Many teams ignore or cut budgets, and it is unclear when the championships will begin.” The decision about the other team is almost made, and when making it, I take into account where my family would be better and the situation with the virus. I don’t want to wait too long for a decision myself, because I’ve already gone a long time without hockey. “

N. Ališauskas, who started his professional career in Latvia, also played in Germany and Kazakhstan during his career before returning to this country. Since 2010, he has also defended the honor of the Lithuanian national team, and with the national team he has participated in nine world championships.
