Philadelphia Flyers official website reporter Bill Meltzer discretion The possibility of disruption of the transfer of Russian Matvey Michkov to the club after the incident with goalkeeper Ivan Fedotov.
“Is there nothing stopping Flyers from doing the same thing as Michkov now? It depends on the will/influence of Roman Rotenberg. It will not be a trivial matter to break Michkov’s contract and bring him here for the 2024/2025 or 2025/2026 season. It would be a real test.
Theoretically, it could have come sooner. But I don’t see the conditions under which this could happen right now. Carrying it even next year will be a real challenge. An early move would be a real challenge,” Meltzer said.
