Even though he joined their AHL team for the 2023/24 season, it seems the Flyers are about to lose another promising prospect.
The Philadelphia Flyers' goaltending situation has been challenging in recent years. When Alexei Kolosov, a former third-round pick, joined the AHL's Lehigh Valley Phantoms for the 2023/24 season, there was optimism he could be a future NHL star.
However, this offseason has taken a turn for the worse, as Kolosov has requested his KHL team, Dynamo Minsk, to assist him in exiting his NHL contract to return to Europe.
Alexei Kolosov asked Dinamo-Minsk to solve the issue with the termination of his contract in the NHL.
Over the last five years, the 22-year-old Kolosov played for Dynamo Minsk in the KHL, finishing his stint with an impressive 2.39 GAA and a .907 save percentage in 47 games. His brief tenure in North America last season included just two KHL games, where he went 1-1 and showed potential as an NHL prospect. Unfortunately, this summer's developments have been a significant setback for the team.
Similar to Evgeny Kuznetsov, Kolosov seems to have struggled with homesickness since joining the Flyers. While his on-ice potential remains promising, these off-ice challenges could significantly affect his NHL prospects.
