Philadelphia Flyers' top goalie prospect Alexei Kolosov has abandoned his team by not showing up to camp, claiming he overslept and missed his flight.
Kolosov was expected to participate in the Flyers' annual development camp from July 2 to July 6. However, he missed his flight to North America, stating that he accidentally overslept. Now, it appears he has demanded that his NHL contract be terminated, indicating he no longer wants to be associated with the Flyers.
«Alexei Kolosov is the strangest guy. Sign a rookie contract to run home in a couple of months and refuse to return to the location Philadelphia is, of course, the upside of infantilism,» wrote Bogun. «I heard that the goalkeeper has already asked the management of Minsk to do everything to help solve the issue of termination of the contract in the NHL. The funny thing is that he was supposed to fly to Pennsylvania on June 20, according to the tickets purchased by the Flyers, but 'completely by chance' overslept the flight and stayed in Belarus.
With just under two months before players are expected to report to training camp, it seems unlikely that Kolosov will ever don a Flyers jersey, especially after he was seen working out with Dinamo-Minsk in Russia.
