Flames sign goaltender Ivan Prosvetov to one-year contract
The Calgary Flames have agreed to terms with goaltender Ivan Prosvetov on a one-year contract, the club announced Tuesday evening.
Prosvetov, 25, spent the 2024-25 season with KHL club CSKA Moscow, posting a 20-16-2 record, four shutouts, and a .920 save percentage in 38 games. The 6’5″ netminder went 2-3-0 with a .918 in five playoff contests.
According to the Flames, Prosvetov’s new deal for the 2025-26 season is a one-way contract worth $950,000.

A fourth-round pick (No. 114 overall) of the Arizona Coyotes in 2018, Prosvetov spent his junior career with the USHL’s Youngstown Phantoms and OHL’s Saginaw Spirit before turning pro in the Arizona organization in 2019-20.
Prosvetov made his NHL debut with the Coyotes in the pandemic-shortened 2020-21 season. He ultimately appeared in 13 games over parts of three seasons with the club but was unable to supplant the likes of Karel Vejmelka and Connor Ingram in Arizona’s tandem.
The Coyotes waived Prosvetov at the start of the 2023-24 season and he was claimed by the Colorado Avalanche to back up Alexandar Georgiev. He posted a 4-3-1 record with an .895 save percentage in 11 games with the Avs before being demoted to the AHL midseason and replaced by Justus Annunen.
In 24 career games over parts of four NHL seasons with the Coyotes and Avalanche, Prosvetov has put together an 8-9-2 record and an .881 save percentage. The Moscow product has gone 65-61-12 with an .898 in 146 career games at the AHL level.
With Dustin Wolf firmly in control of the No. 1 spot between the pipes in Calgary, Prosvetov will almost assuredly be going up against 2025 AHL All-Star Devin Cooley for the backup job with the Flames. Both goaltenders are on one-way contracts that run through the end of the 2025-26 season.
