Scott Laughton

The Flyers announced on Friday that they have re-signed forward Scott Laughton to a two-year deal with an average annual value of $2.3 million. With the deal, Laughton and the Flyers avoid arbitration. A hearing was scheduled for July 30.

When Monday came and went and the Flyers did nothing but address organizational depth, it was telling. For prospects like Morgan Frost and Joel Farabee, it should be motivating. It means there will be an opportunity to make the Flyers roster this season. There will be an open competition.

The Flyers made their additions already, now they focus on bringing back the remaining RFAs to cap off their roster after a relatively quiet July 1.

The guys review the Flyers draft, analyze the Sanheim and Elliott deals and the Hartman trade, try to project what kind of deals Provorov, Konecny and Laughton could get and look at some possible free agent targets for the Flyers as free agency begins on July 1.

As free agency weekend approaches, Flyers GM Chuck Fletcher discussed the recent moves and upcoming free agency on Wednesday during development camp.

There are three top forward prospects that are showcasing skills at development camp with their sights set on training camp in September, with a chance to make the Flyers roster.

The Flyers have re-signed goalie Brian Elliott to a one-year, $2 million deal, GM Chuck Fletcher announced on Wednesday afternoon.

After several weeks of activity, all the wheeling and dealing happening over the last two weeks, the weekend where free agency opens may not be all that eventful.

The Flyers announced on Tuesday that they have extended qualifying offers to four players -- defenseman Ivan Provorov and forwards Travis Konecny, Scott Laughton and Nicolas Aube-Kubel.

An interesting possibility stemmed from a tweet from former NHL scout Roger Dicklund, could Wayne Simmonds return to the Flyers on a cap-friendly deal?
