Martin Kariya, who played for Dinamo Riga, signed a contract with my team Ambri-Piotta. What can you tell me about him? He played good or poorly with Riga?
Heard he had a accident?

Few sentences on wikipedia probably sums up his time with Dinamo Riga perfectly.

Very quick, compensates his lack of height with clever play, rather passes than looks for a shot. He wasn't our best player nor worst. He was awesome in first playoff round, but that was not enough to earn a new deal here. Bar Marcel Hossa he was our best foreigner on our roster. Though I'm amazed that he managed to average more than point per game in his spell with SCL Tigers as I thought Swiss hockey league is far more physical than KHL.
