The Flyers sign defenseman Nolan Baumgartner to a 2 year contract reportedly worth $2.4 million.
Baumgartner a Canadian was a first round draft pick for the Washington Capitals in 1994. He was picked using one of the 2 first-round draft picks the Flyers gave up in order to obtain Eric Lindros from the Quebec Nordiques.
Besides the Capitals he also played for the Blackhawks, Canucks and Penguins.

According to TSN
Assets Has great physical tools. Possesses a booming point shot and the ability to put up points from the back end.
Flaws Struggles with defensive-zone coverage, and is mistake-prone. Doesn’t use his size nearly enough.
Career potential No. 6 or 7 defenseman.

Sounds like the Flyers signed a younger Chris Therien, nice.
Guess I should give the guy a chance before assigning him official pylon status. Even though he has only played one full NHL season since being drafted 12 years ago.
His numbers were pretty decent last year, almost comparable to Johnsson who the Flyers did not resign. 70 games, 5 goals, 29 assists, 34 points and +11.
