Slava Voynov has been moved from jail to an unspecified detention facility by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Voynov, who is a Russian citizen, will have a hearing with an immigration judge, according to the Los Angeles Times.
The Times reported that the Los Angeles Kings have declined to comment on this latest development.
Voynov began his jail sentence on July 7 after pleading no contest to a misdemeanor domestic violence charge.
