What does this mean, if anything, for top prospect Matvei Michkov?
Philadelphia Flyers fans percolated with hope this week after prized prospect Matvei Michkov wasin a video posted on social media. Could the 2023 No. 7 overall pick arrive in the City of Brotherly Love before his KHL contract ends in 2026? That got a little murkier over the weekend.
As a result, the IIHF issued significant punishment on Saturday. They issued a two-year transfer ban on all international transfers through Aug. 10, 2026. The IIHF suspended Fedotov from representing Russia in any international competition, including the Olympics, for three years. They also issued a six-month suspension for Fedotov from playing in any club games when or if he leaves the NHL, which would theoretically impact future play in the KHL.
Fedotov posted an .811 save percentage in three appearances. But he appears to be the Flyers’ goalie of the future. The 6-foot-7 netminder, tied for the tallest in league history, signed a two-year, $6.55 million contract extension with the Flyers on April 23.
