Michael Leighton and the Flyers agreed to a 2 year $3.1M contract. But are the Flyers done with their gaoltending? Leighton and Backlund will compete for the Starting job, but there may be another contender.
Flyers wanted a proven starter, and they sounded reluctant to look at Leighton as that, however he may be just what they need. The Flyers could used the money they saved in goal to help out their blueline, which was depeleted come June.
Hamhuis is out there as is Zbynek Michalek and Paul Martin. Guys who can handle a big load of minutes and play Powerplays and Penalty Kills. Tomorrow's start of free agency may tell all in Philly.
