Is Artyom Zagidulin headed to the KHL?

Another day, another bit of European-based possible news regarding the Calgary Flames. On Monday morning, the Kontinental Hockey League’s Metallurg Magnitigorsk posted a bit of news regarding a possible loan involving Flames goaltending prospect Artyom Zagidulin.

Here’s what they said, via Google Translate:

Today we are negotiating with Calgary, Artyom Zagidulin and his agent on the return of the goalkeeper to Metallurg’s team, and in fact there is already a preliminary agreement on this. We are waiting for an official positive decision from the NHL club. If everything works out, then Artyom will spend time in Magnitka before the start of the season overseas, will receive playing and training practice, and we will strengthen the goalkeeper’s line, given that Juho Olkinuora and Vasily Koshechkin are now on self-isolation.
