Florek signed a contract with Iserlohn of Germany's Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL) on Friday, TSN reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old power forward was originally drafted by the Bruins with a fifth-round pick in 2010, but he only made his way into four NHL games back in 2013-14. It's not uncommon for a player to head overseas if North American hockey doesn't bear fruit.

Florek signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Islanders on Thursday. Florek, who recorded 35 points in 73 games for AHL Providence this past season, will serve as a depth forward with the Isles and if he does see NHL action this coming season, it would presumably be in a bottom-six role.

Florek was sent to AHL Providence on Tuesday, Joe Haggerty of CSN reports. He spent most of last season in the AHL, scoring 19 goals and 19 assists but did play four games with the Bruins, scoring one goal and one assist. Florek is expected to stay in the AHL for most of this season again and will have very little value if he does get some playing time with Boston.

Justin Florek was gifted with his first NHL playoff goal in Game 2. He opened the scoring on Sunday on a bad turnover by Red Wings goaltender Jimmy Howard. Howard's clearing attempt hit Brendan Smith in the leg and Florek deposited the puck into a yawning cage. "The puck was chipped out when Howard was coming off the play at the end. I was lucky he was firing to his forehand and I tried to read it," Florek said. "The next thing I knew the puck was on my stick. I just turned and fired on net, and the rest is history." He generated a goal and an assist in four outings during the regular season. Florek, who grew up in Marquette, Mich., will get a chance to play in front of family and friends when the series shifts to Detroit this week.
