Last week, Dynamo Kursk announced that Slovenian Eva Lisec is returning to the team next season. As far as I know, that is the first announcement on the women's side of a player from anywhere other than Russia or Belarus playing there this season. On the men's side, the caliber of player is not quite the same, but teams are filling their foreigner spots, including with a number of Americans.

"In my professional career, playing for Ekat was the best I was treated professionally," she said. "I would definitely be open to going back there, with the people there, because it was such a genuine experience for me."
