Ivan Dmitrievich Fedotov (Russian: Иван Дмитревич Федотов; born 28 November 1996) is a Finnish-born Russian professional ice hockey goaltender for the Philadelphia Flyers of the National Hockey League (NHL). Fedotov was selected by the Flyers in the seventh round, 188th overall, of the 2015 NHL Entry Draft.
Playing career
On 12 December 2014, Fedotov made his Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) debut playing with HC Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk during the 2014–15 KHL season. Fedotov was drafted by the Philadelphia Flyers in the 7th round of the 2015 NHL Draft with the 188th overall selection.
Unable to add to his solitary game with Nizhnekamsk, Fedotov was traded to Salavat Yulaev Ufa on 4 May 2016.
Following the 2018–19 season, having played the majority of the year in Salavat's VHL farm club, Fedotov was traded to Traktor Chelyabinsk on 6 May 2019.
On 2 May 2021, Fedotov left Traktor after two seasons when he was traded to CSKA Moscow in exchange for financial compensation. In the 2021–22 season, while playing with the perennially contending CSKA, Fedotov assumed the starting goaltender role and appeared in 26 games with a 14–10–2 record and a 2.00 GAA and .919 save percentage. He collected 16 wins through 22 games in the post-season in helping CSKA claim their second Gagarin Cup in franchise history. He was named as a finalist for the KHL's top goaltender of the year.
On 7 May 2022, Fedotov as a free agent was signed to a one-year, entry-level contract with the Philadelphia Flyers for the 2022–23 season. While in preparation to depart for North America, on 1 July 2022, Fedotov was arrested for alleged evasion of military service in Russia and sent to Severomorsk, which prevented him from joining the Philadelphia Flyers. Fedotov would miss the entirety of the season to fulfil his military service requirements.
Upon completion of his compulsory training, Fedotov's contract with the Flyers was initially announced to have been tolled for the following 2023–24 season. However with the memorandum of understanding suspended between the NHL and KHL, Fedotov was signed to a two-year contract to resume his playing career with previous club, CSKA Moscow of the KHL on 8 July 2023. The KHL later announced to have registered his contract with CSKA on the basis of Fedotov not holding a 'valid and binding contract with a NHL club'. On 31 July, the NHL and the Flyers contested the KHL's decision to register his contract, and formally submitted a request to the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) that his contract with the Flyers be tolled. CSKA terminated Fedotov's contract on 28 March 2024, and he then joined the Flyers for the remainder of the 2023–24 NHL season. Fedotov made his NHL debut in a 4–3 overtime loss against the New York Islanders on 1 April, entering the game in relief of Samuel Ersson and making 19 saves on 21 shots.

On 23 January 2022, Fedotov was named to the roster of Russian Olympic Committee athletes for the 2022 Winter Olympics.
