Flyers Sign Gilbert, Juulsen Defensemen, Dvorak Forward

News summary

The Philadelphia Flyers are actively strengthening their roster during the 2025 offseason with several strategic signings aimed at improving depth and physicality. They signed defensemen Dennis Gilbert and Noah Juulsen to one-year contracts worth $850,000 and $900,000 respectively, adding size and experience to the blue line primarily as depth options or injury insurance. Gilbert, a stay-at-home defenseman with limited NHL scoring, is expected to provide physicality and could play 30 to 35 games, while Juulsen is likely to serve as a seventh defenseman. Additionally, the Flyers secured forward Christian Dvorak on a one-year, $5.4 million deal; Dvorak brings versatility, strong defensive play, and faceoff skills, expected to fit into a third-line role and support the team's push to return to the postseason. These moves reflect a balanced approach by general manager Danny Brière, combining low-risk depth additions on defense with a veteran forward to bolster the lineup. The Flyers continue to address their roster needs, with a focus on depth, physicality, and defensive reliability as they prepare for the upcoming season.
