Mandatory Credit: Marc DesRosiers-Imagn Images The Columbus Blue Jackets are acquiring goaltender Ivan Fedotov from the Philadelphia Flyers, Sportsnet reported Sunday morning.
The Flyers are receiving a sixth-round pick in the 2026 NHL Draft in return for the 6-foot-7 netminder, multiple media outlets reported.
Fedotov, 28, posted a 6-13-4 record with a 3.15 goals-against average and .880 save percentage in 26 appearances (24 starts) last season with the Flyers.
Prior to joining Philadelphia, Fedotov spent the 2021-22 season and part of the 2023-24 campaign with CSKA Moscow of the Kontinental Hockey League. His stay there came despite the International Ice Hockey Federation ruling in favor of the NHL and Flyers that the goaltender's contract would be tolled after he missed the 2022-23 season after being called into military service in Russia.
The Finland-born Russian international will join fellow goaltenders Elvis Merzlikins and Jet Greaves in Columbus.
Fedotov was selected by the Flyers in the seventh round of the 2015 NHL Draft.
