[Robillard] Aleksei Kolosov, who was expected to play another season in the #KHL, has signed a 3 year ELC with the Philadelphia Flyers. In 42 games last season with the Dinamo Minsk, Kolosov honed a .912 SV%, 2.55 GAA. Flyers have a good pool of netminders.

Likely Kolosov was poached in response to Fedotov returning to Russia. Kolosov is coming off a season in which he played 45 games went 14-23-5 with a save percentage of .915 and GAA average of 2.55 in regular season and 3.05 in playoffs. Kolosov will compete for the backup spot or AHL spot.

If at first you don’t succeed
So, the eternal thorn of good team-no goaltending is being turned into all goaltending-no team. Interesting strategy!
