Flyers Sign Goalie Dan Vladar to Two-Year $6.7M Deal

News summary

The Philadelphia Flyers have signed goaltender Dan Vladar to a two-year contract worth $6.7 million ($3.35 million per season) to bolster their goaltending position. Vladar, who previously played for the Calgary Flames as a backup, posted a 12-11-6 record with a 2.80 goals-against average and a .898 save percentage last season. At 27 years old, Vladar is expected to form a reliable tandem with Samuel Ersson, as the Flyers look to improve their weak goaltending that allowed 286 goals last season, one of the worst in the NHL. With Vladar's signing, it is likely that Ivan Fedotov will move to the minor leagues, and the Flyers aim to avoid the unstable three-goalie rotation they experienced previously. The move signals a commitment to strengthening their defense as they finished last in the Metropolitan Division last season. Flyers GM Danny Briere has been active in addressing team needs, also signing forward Christian Dvorak to a one-year deal.
