AP Photo/Frank Franklin II Former NHL goaltender Louis Domingue is heading to Russia to continue his professional hockey career. The 33-year-old netminder has signed a one-year contract with Sibir Novosibirsk of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) for the 2025–26 season. Domingue, who last played in the NHL with the New York Rangers, brings a decade of experience to his new team overseas. Sibir Novosibirsk signs veteran goalie for 2025–26 season Sibir Novosibirsk officially announced the signing of Louis Domingue as part of their roster for the upcoming KHL season. Domingue made one NHL appearance in 2024–25 with the New York Rangers, stopping 25 of 27 shots in a winning effort. While his NHL time was limited, he spent most of the year with the Hartford Wolf Pack in the AHL, where he posted a 7-20-1 record, .896 save percentage, and a 3.32 goals-against average across 28 games. This move marks Domingue's first stint in European professional hockey, as he looks to revitalize his career in the competitive KHL landscape. His addition gives Sibir a goaltender with both NHL and AHL experience who has played under pressure at the highest levels. Louis Domingue previously played for New Jersey Devils, Vancouver Canucks, Pittsburgh Penguins and more Domingue's NHL journey has included stops with seven teams: the Arizona Coyotes, Tampa Bay Lightning, New Jersey Devils, Vancouver Canucks, Calgary Flames, Pittsburgh Penguins, and New York Rangers. Over 144 career NHL games, he compiled a 61-60-10 record, a .906 save percentage, and a 3.01 goals-against average. He played 16 games for the Devils during the 2019–20 season, where he posted a 3-8-2 record and was later traded to the Canucks for Zane McIntyre. In the AHL that same year, Domingue had a 4-2-1 record with a .912 save percentage for the Binghamton Devils. A fresh opportunity in the KHL While Domingue has mostly served as a depth goaltender in recent years, his move to Sibir Novosibirsk could provide more consistent playing time and a prominent role. At 33, he remains a capable veteran presence who can help mentor younger goalies and deliver solid performances when called upon. Louis Domingue's move to the KHL offers a new chapter in his career after a decade in North America. With a one-year deal in place, he now has the chance to prove himself once again, this time on Russian ice with Sibir Novosibirsk.

Another Goalie Moves From NHL To KHL
Canadian goaltender Louis Domingue, 33, has signed a one-year contract with Sibir Novosibirsk, the KHL club announced on Thursday. This is Domingue's first contract to play overseas in his career. Originally from Mont-Saint-Hilaire, Que., Domingue played junior hockey for the Moncton Wildcats and Quebec Remparts of the QMJHL, and was drafted in the fifth round, 138th overall, by the Phoenix Coyotes in the 2010 NHL Entry Draft. Between 2014 and 2025, Domingue played 144 NHL regular-season games and seven more in the playoffs for the Coyotes, Tampa Bay Lightning, New Jersey Devils, Vancouver Canucks, Calgary Flames, Pittsburgh Penguins and New York Rangers. In the 2018-19 season with Tampa Bay, he played 26 games backing up Andrei Vasilevskiy and posted a 21-5-0 record – including a run of 11 straight wins – as the Lightning tied an NHL record with 62 regular-season wins (since broken). After playing only two regular-season games for Pittsburgh in 2021-22, injuries to Tristan Jarry and Casey DeSmith forced Domingue into the Penguins' starting role during the playoffs. He entered Game 1 of the first round in the second overtime period against the Rangers and played in six of seven games that series, which Pittsburgh lost. Goalie Spencer Martin Signs In KHL Canadian goaltender Spencer Martin, 30, has signed a two-year contract with CSKA Moscow, the KHL club announced on Wednesday. In each of the past two seasons, Domingue played one game and won for the Rangers, but otherwise spent the rest of the time in the AHL. Domingue becomes the third goalie who appeared in the NHL in 2024-25 to sign in the KHL this off-season, following Chris Driedger and Spencer Martin. Domingue joins a Sibir team that finished seventh in the KHL's Eastern Conference last season and was eliminated in the first round of the playoffs. The team also includes former NHL forwards Scott Wilson and Nikita Soshnikov and 27-year-old Toronto Maple Leafs prospect Vladislav Kara. Photo © Eric Canha-Imagn Images.
