On 12 December 2014, Fedotov made his Kontinental Hockey League debut playing with HC Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk during the 2014–15 KHL season.[1] Fedotov was drafted by the Philadelphia Flyers in the 7th round of the 2015 NHL Draft with the 188th overall selection.

On 2 May 2021, Fedotov left Traktor after two seasons when he was traded to CSKA Moscow in exchange for financial compensation.[4] 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.[5]
On 7 May 2022, Fedotov as a free agent was signed a one-year, entry-level contract with the Philadelphia Flyers.[6]
On 1 July 2022, Fedotov was arrested for alleged evasion of military service and sent to Severomorsk, which prevented him from joining the Philadelphia Flyers.
