Overview
- The team announced Friday that Aleksei Kolosov agreed to a one-year contract worth $850,000, keeping the 24-year-old under contract as organizational depth.
- Kolosov is expected to spend most of 2026–27 with the AHL’s Lehigh Valley Phantoms as the third goaltender and primary call-up option.
- He went 15-21-2 with a .895 save percentage and a 2.98 goals-against average for Lehigh Valley in 2025–26, and he posted an .830 save percentage in four NHL games.
- A 2021 third-round pick, Kolosov came from KHL club Dinamo Minsk with a .909 career save rate and has worked through early North American adjustment issues that team officials say have improved.
- The decision comes as Dan Vladař’s breakout season has the Flyers considering an extension and as RFA Samuel Ersson’s future must be decided before the June 30 qualifying deadline.
