Komarov (undisclosed) will be put on unconditional waivers Thursday for the purpose of terminating his contract with the Islanders before signing with SKA of the KHL, Arthur Staple of The Athletic reports.

Komarov evidently isn't interested in playing for AHL Bridgeport, so he'll instead head back to his native Russia presumably for the rest of his playing days. If that ends up coming to fruition, the 34-year-old forward will finish his NHL career having picked up 63 goals and 170 points in 491 games split between the Maple Leafs and the Isles.
