Philadelphia Flyers goaltending prospect Alexei Kolosov is reporting to training camp after missing the first week, according to his agent.
Kolosov, a 22-year-old from Belarus, had not reported to camp because of undisclosed issues he and his camp had. Agent Dan Milstein said Kolosov was enthusiastic about joining the team.
"All previous concerns have been thoroughly addressed and are now resolved," Milstein said Thursday in a statement to The Associated Press.
A message sent to a team spokesperson was not immediately returned.
Kolosov signed his entry-level contract in July 2023 and played in two games late last season for Philadelphia's American Hockey League affiliate, the Lehigh Valley Phantoms, before returning home. A third-round pick in 2021 who starred for Dynamo Minsk of the KHL in previous years is considered one of the best young players at the position not currently in the NHL.
Flyers general manager Daniel Briere recently said he thought it was time for Kolosov "to step up and respect the contract." Kolosov is signed for this season and next with a salary of $925,000 in the NHL, $80,000 in the AHL and a $92,500.
Samuel Ersson, who became the starter last season, and Ivan Fedotov, who left Russia for North America last spring, are expected to split time in Philadelphia. Kolosov would be first in line for a call-up from the minors.
On Thursday, the Flyers shored up their organizational goaltending depth by signing Eetu Makiniemi on a one-year contract. The 25-year-old Finn was in camp on a professional tryout agreement.
