Antti Miettinen: The move to KHL might have been the wrong decision

Winnipeg Jets forward Antti Miettinen explained why he decided to leave KHL’s Ak Bars Kazan and return to North America.

«It was just a matter of our family not really being comfortable there. It was pretty tough for my wife and myself to have a normal things rolling and so we decided to do this and here we are.

«It took a long time to think the move (to the KHL) because it was a huge not just for me and my career but also for our family. My wife was pregnant with (our second child)… there were a lot of things involved. It was personal reasons we went there and personal reasons we came back here. We’re happy here.

«You look back and think it might have been the wrong decision for all of us, but it’s in the past and we’ve got to look to the future,» Miettinen said to The Winnipeg Free Press.
