Tony DeAngelo's contract with SKA St. Petersburg is terminated

I really do wonder about that. With the devaluation of the ruble vs USD (essentially halved over the past ~2 years), it may not be all that worthwhile for him to play over there if his goal is to use to eventually live in the U.S.

IIRC they used to pay in USD, but that obviously isn't (can't be) the case any longer. I'm not even sure how a guy like Tony can transfer any money he made there to an account he can access here. Do they pay in bitcoin?

Someone here has to know.

Maybe he just really wanted to get back for the inauguration.
