Markov signs with Moscow Dynamo http://about-sport.net/?p=11035... Danny Markov’s National Hockey League career may not be over, but it’s definitely on hold.
The 31-year-old unrestricted free agent defenceman signed Friday to play with Moscow Dynamo of the Russian elite league after being unable to find a deal in the NHL.
Jay Grossman, Markov’s agent, did not confirm the financial details but it is believed to be around $4-million over two years and to contain an out clause that would allow the player to return to North America next summer.
It will take about three weeks for the defender to get in the line-up.
Markov was drafted in the 9th round, 223rd overall, by the Toronto Maple Leafs in 1995, making his debut in the 1997-1998 season.
In four years and 200 games with the Leafs, he scored nine goals and added 36 assists but was a strong plus-24.
He followed that with two seasons in Phoenix, split a year between Carolina and Philadelphia, went to Nashville and played 2006-2007 with the Detroit Red Wings.
Overall, Markov has appeared in 538 NHL games, with 29 goals, 118 assists and is a plus-47.
