Former KHL club CSKA Moscow goaltender Ivan Fedotov joins Philadelphia Flyers
The Philadelphia Flyers own Fedotov's NHL rights, signed him in May 2022 and attempted to bring him to North America a few months later. He was instead taken to a remote military base in the Arctic Circle for a year of service. Ivan Fedotov, a former KHL player, has joined the Philadelphia Flyers, nine years after he was drafted by the team. FedOTov's NHL career was delayed due to a forced stint in Russian military service. His contract with CSKA Moscow was terminated with one year remaining on it, and CSKA maintains his KHL rights. Fedotv and Flyers general manager Danny Briere are set to meet with the media on Friday.
