Flyers Released From Army: Unfortunate news
It has come to light that Russian goalie Ivan Fedotov was forced to serve in the current war in the East against his will. This unexpected turn of events prevented him from joining the team that drafted him, as he was detained in St. Petersburg.
Despite this setback, Fedotov is considered a promising prospect, having achieved a 2.00 GAA and a respectable .919 SV% during his final season in the KHL with CSKA Moscow. Sadly, his �entire' career won't be spent with the Flyers.
Last night I received confirmation that CSKA President Igor Esmantovich said that Ivan Fedotov will return to CSKA, and they are ready to take him back. This confirms a report that Russ Cohen put out a few hours earlier than my tweet in regards to what the General Manager said of CSKA.

Fedotov, was drafted 188th overall by Ron Hextall and the Flyers in 2015.
