Spartak spoke about the possible consequences of goalkeeper Fedotov’s game for CSKA

Athletistic/Hockey. Last year, goaltender Ivan Fedotov signed with the Philadelphia Flyers. However, he did not go to the NHL as he was called up for military service. Returning from the army, Ivan Fedotov signed a new contract with CSKA. This led to a conflict between the KHL and the NHL. The IIHF decided to disqualify Ivan Fedotov from September 1 this year. However, CSKA may not comply with this order. This was expressed by the sports director of Spartak Roman Belyaev.

– At the moment, according to the regulations, this cannot be done. We will have to wait for September 1st, wait for the reaction of the IIHF. Of course, we wouldn’t want our players to think about leaving the league and the club under contract. There is one rule: sign a contract, resolve it, then do whatever you want. We don’t have such guys in the team who think about it, we have an honest team, so far there are no prerequisites for that. We don’t know what the reaction will be. We work by the rules. I believe that the guys will work on their contracts to the end, – quotes SE Belyaev.

Recall that Ivan Fedotov won the Gagarin Cup at the end of the 2021/2022 season with CSKA. Moreover, as a member of the Russian national team in 2022, he won the silver medal at the Olympic Games.
