NHL trade rumors: Will the Flyers cash in on Evgeny Medvedev?

Will the Flyers be willing to turn their offseason KHL signing into a draft pick, or do they still envision Evgeny Medvedev as part of their future?

Signed to a one-year, $3 million contract last offseason that brought him over from the KHL in Russia, 33-year old Evgeny Medvedev was expected to be a key piece of the Philadelphia Flyers defense during the 2015-16 season. Unfortunately, Medvedev's season hasn't quite worked out the way the team had hoped it would.

Now, there is talk that Medvedev could be available on the trade market as a rental defenseman.
