3rd year Russian-born center Radel Fazleev(19) opts out of the third year of his entry level deal with Philadelphia Flyers to head home signing for the remainder of 2018/2019 with Ak Bars Kazan.
He was a 6th round pick in the 2014 draft (#168 overall), while lighting it up for Calgary Hitmen of the WHL.
The 6’1″ 192 lbs. forward was off to a bit of a rough start with affiliate Lehigh Valley Phantoms in the current frame scoring only 2 assists in 15 AHL games after getting a modest career high 15 assists and 19 points in 63 games last season.
He was recalled but never skated a regular season NHL game.
At just 22-years old, he may just do better playing his hockey closer to home rather than trying for a spot in the big league.
