When Jan Sprynar recovers from injury, he won’t be returning to the Halifax Mooseheads.

The club says the 19-year-old forward has decided to return to his home country of Czechia, and he has signed with HC VERVA Litvinov of the Czech Extraliga.

Sprynar put up 29 points in 47 games for Halifax since being acquired from Shawinigan at last year’s trade deadline.
