HC Barys offered the Kazakhstan-born hockey player a new deal. However, the 35-year-old Antropov still hasn't decided whether he's going to sign it or stay in Canada where his family lives. Barys are reportedly in desperate need of a good center forward. It is worth mentioning that Antropov scored 21 (7+14) points in 39 matches in the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) this season.
