Flyers Grab Pouliot But Grant Signs with Ducks, Pitlick With Coyotes

The NHL teams were busy today with over 50 signings throughout the league. The Flyers were not shut out coming to terms with depth defender Derrick Pouliot. If the name sound familiar it maybe from the time he spent with arch-rival Pittsburgh. He was a first round pick of the Pens and was part of their organization until October of 2017 when he was traded to Vancouver.

Pouliot was thought of as offensive defensemen as a prospect and is considered a fair puck mover and dressed for the Blues twice last season.
