Flyers re-sign Brian Elliott to one-year deal

The carousel is winding up again. When free agency opens on Oct. 9 — or during the draft three days prior — there will no doubt be some goaltenders shuffled around and many will land with new teams, but you can cross the Philadelphia Flyers off the list of teams looking to add a goalie.

On Saturday, the team announced that they have signed Brian Elliott to a one-year extension.

The contract will hold a cap hit of $1.5-million, a decrease from his $2-million AAV last season. Elliott was set to become an unrestricted free agent next week.
