“Briere said whatever happens with Johansen would not affect the decision to possibly buy out the contracts of forward Cam Atkinson or goalie Cal Petersen. Each has one season remaining on his deal.
Atkinson had 28 points (13 goals, 15 assists) in 70 games this season but was scratched in 11 of the final 17 games. Petersen was 2-2-0 with a 3.90 goals-against average and .864 save percentage in five games (four starts) before being placed on waivers and finishing the season with Lehigh Valley of the American Hockey League.”
“We’re looking at every option,” Briere said. “Because we’re tight on [NHL salary] cap space, we’re still looking at every possible option in that direction. Both Cam Atkinson and Cal Petersen want to prove that they can still play in the NHL. So we’re evaluating all of that, but we haven’t made a final decision yet.”

No 1C. No 1D. Max CAP. No playoffs. No top5 or even top10 picks this year. Again. Same mediocre (At Best) B.S. with this team. Talking paying Konecny 10m a year. Guy has like 1 goal in 20 some playoff games and has scored at a ppg pace one season so far. 🤦🏻♂️🤡💩
That is atrociously ridiculous.
Couturier is an LTIR nightmare with his absurd contract.
STOP overpaying and extending players into their 30s when their best years are behind them!!!
Well😢be watching Chicago,NJ, and probably even Pissburgh win cups before we do. Again.
Because we do the same 🤡💩 and say "it can work". 🤦🏻♂️💩
My honest opinion Petersen can stay in the AHL. I know things didn’t go to plan this year with him. Who we going to turn to if and when things go south with Ers and Fedotov?
hopefully….flyers won't go anywhere putting him back on the ice this year
Buy out 2/3 of contract
For rebuild I want gone
