BREAKING: Giant Goalie Shockingly Hits Free Agency Mid-Season
The world of hockey is full of incredible goaltenders, and on Thursday, we saw one of the biggest in the sport being a shock mid-season release by his team.
6-foot-4 Alexander Sharychenkov hits free agency
Despite posting solid numbers this season (.907 save percentage, 2.44 GAA with one shutout), Alexander Sharychenkov of CSKA has officially been released by the team.
CSKA has terminated the contract of Alexander Sharychenkov. #KHL
He was 5-7-0 .907 SV% 2.44 GAA 1 SO
He was 5-7-0 .907 SV% 2.44 GAA 1 SO
His record may leave much to be desired, but at 6-foot-4 and 207 pounds, the 32-year old has the size to be one of the best goaltenders in the league, and his release has come as a major shock.
It's unclear exact what the reason behind this release is, as his play on the ice hasn't been dreadful, but with the size and the KHL experience behind him, there's certainly a team out there that will relish the opportunity to land the giant goaltender.
