Russian goalkeeper Ivan Fedotov carried out the first training on ice as part of “Philadelphia “, photographs of the course were published by the club’s press service.
The goalkeeper trained separately from the rest of the team. Earlier during a press conference, Philadelphia general manager Daniel Briere said that Fedotov could participate in the NHL playoffs this season.
In the summer of 2022, Fedotov signed a rookie contract with Philadelphia, but he was called up for military service. At the end of his service, the goalkeeper signed a two-year deal with CSKA Moscow. On March 28, the capital club announced the termination of the contract with the hockey player. The military team retained the goalkeeper’s sporting rights in Russia. The Flyers announced the transfer of Fedotov on Friday.
Last season, the 27-year-old goalie played 49 games in the KHL regular season and playoffs, keeping five clean sheets. While with CSKA, Fedotov won the 2022 Gagarin Cup and, with the Russian team, won silver at the 2022 Olympic Games in Beijing.
