One weird random thought a couple of weeks ago that popped into my head (scary place) was when the Flyers announced they had signed defender Travis Sanheim to a two-year contract extension that would pay him a cap hit of $4.65 million.
It stood out since Sanheim is about the same ago as some Penguin defensemen who now are in the same salary space. Sanheim, 25, has 255 career NHL games under his belt. He also played an average of 21:53 per game for Philadelphia last season, second most on the team. Sanheim was also on ice for the most 5v5 goals against, and had by far the worst plus/minus on the team.
