Instant analysis: Flyers to sign Keith Yandle to one-year deal

If you were expecting the Philadelphia Flyers to slow down this offseason, you were wrong. Chuck Fletcher has been firing on all cylinders recently and that trend carries into Tuesday. According to numerous reports, the team are set to sign former Panthers D-man Keith Yandle.

Yandle was bought out of his contract by the Panthers earlier in the offseason, meaning he was able to test free agency. It didn’t take long for Philadelphia to come knocking, sniffing some value on the open market. Elliotte Friedman noted that the deal is a one-year contract worth $900k, presenting the Flyers with a cheap and cheerful option to fill out their roster.
