Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
Interesting story on the flyers finally getting a Russian goalie:
www.espn.com
Flyers general manager Danny Briere stuck to silence on Fedotov's path to Philly as the goalie was introduced Friday.
"We'll just leave the details out," Briere said.
What the Flyers are willing to reveal is this: They believe the 27-year-old Fedotov was worth the arduous, complicated wait to get him and that he can make an impact down the stretch as they chase a playoff berth.
.
.
Fedotov was able to join the Flyers nine years after he was picked in the seventh round of the 2015 draft because he had his contract in Russia's KHL terminated Thursday by CSKA Moscow.
.
.
Fedotov is under contract with the Flyers this season after his initial deal, signed in May 2022, was tolled. He attempted to come to North America in July 2022 but instead was taken by authorities to a remote military base in the Arctic Circle for a year of service.
.
.
Fedotov was the starter for the Russians at the 2022 Beijing Olympics when they reached the final and lost to Finland.

NHL working on contingency plan to potentially sell, relocate Arizona Coyotes to Salt Lake City: report
The NHL's board of governors would have to approve a relocation
The Coyotes' future in Arizona is in doubt. Last May, voters rejected the NHL franchise's plan for a multibillion-dollar entertainment district in Tempe.The team continues to play home games at Mullett Arena on the campus of Arizona State University during the ongoing 2023-24 season. The facility can only seat 5,000 spectators. The team also played in the arena throughout the 2022-23 season.
Amid the uncertainly surrounding the team's future, the NHL appears to be working on a contingency plan that could result in the franchise's relocation to Salt Lake City by as early as next season, ESPN reported.
