Philadelphia Flyers Goalie to Officially Miss 2022-23 Season


Philadelphia Flyers goaltender Ivan Fedotov has dropped his appeal regarding his charges of evading his military obligations in Russia. As a result, he will officially miss the 2022-23 season.
This seemed inevitable, as it would have taken a lot for the 25-year-old to have his charges dropped. Thus, rather than letting this situation play out longer, he will be in Russia serving his one-year military service. 


Once served, Fedotov will be able to join the Flyers in 2023-24. The Flyers also have the option to move his one-year, $925,000 to next season, which is what they likely will do. 

In 26 games last season with CSKA Moskva of the KHL, Fedotov had a 2.00 GAA and 9.19 SV%.
