The Philadelphia Flyers are eager to make THE big move of the offseason. They have been seriously kicking tires on Alex DeBrincat. Their interest in Johnny Gaudreau is also very probably pretty high. However, like Elliotte Friedman said, the Flyers could instead add 2 to 4 pieces instead of a big one.
And according to The Fourth Period, the Flyers are among the teams interested in the services of Avalanche forward Valeri Nichuskin.
The Avs want to get Nichushkin locked into a new deal, especially after his performance in the playoffs. But several teams might be willing to pay a higher price via free agency if he becomes available. His price tag has skyrocketed.
Nichuskin is going to get paid this summer. He had a breakthrough season this year, and his performances in the playoffs were remarkable. He recorded 52 points in 62 regular season games and 15 points in 20 playoffs games.
