Filip Zadina, Philadelphia Flyers May Need Each Other

Filip Zadina, the sixth overall pick in 2018, mutually agreed with the Detroit Red Wings to have his contract terminated on Thursday. The Philadelphia Flyers could do worse than taking a chance on the 23 year old winger.

The Detroit Red Wings will forever regret drafting Filip Zadina and telling Quinn Hughes that he would not be selected by them. Five years later, Hughes is one of the very best defensemen in the NHL, whilst Zadina is now a free agent.

Filip Zadina would have been heading into the second season of a three-year, $5.
