The news keeps on rolling in, folks! The theme so far today has largely been of the Flyers making moves to shore up their depth heading into the season, and this most recently announced signing falls well in line with that. Per the folks over at PuckPedia, the Flyers have signed forward Lane Pederson to a one-year, two-way contract, which will pay him $775,000 at the NHL level and $525,000 at the AHL level.
Pederson, a center, has spent the last two seasons playing for Bakersfield, the AHL affiliate of the Oilers. During the 2023-24 season, he put up a respectable 22 goals and 52 points in 66 games played, and then managed five goals and 12 points in 18 games last year, before his season was cut short by a shoulder injury which required surgery to repair back in February (but one would imagine he’ll be good in time to start this season).
