The Philadelphia Flyers announced today that they have signed 6’0″ 190-pound unrestricted free agent left wing Geoff Sanderson to a two-year contract, according to club General Manager Bob Clarke. Per club policy, financial terms were not disclosed.

“Geoff is an exceptionally gifted skater and goal scorer,” said Clarke in making the announcement. “We have obviously increased our goal scoring and increased the speed of our club. It was the intent in the off-season to do that, and Geoff will help us improve in that area.”

“I’m really excited to be joining the Flyers. It’s great to be on an elite team in the NHL that has high expectations to win the Stanley Cup,” said Sanderson. “You look at the lineup they have and I am really excited to be part of it. I would best describe myself as a speed-type forward. I try to generate turnovers on the forecheck and just try to use my speed, which is probably my best asset.” [.continue.]

What another center?! Ok he always plays the wing.
As if the Flyers did not have enough forwards going into the season, heck lets add one more. Does this give any hints of other Flyers not coming back?
Primeau, Kapanen or even Gagne?

The Flyers have not come to terms with Simon Gagne yet, although Clarke stated several weeks ago the deal would get done by last week. The rumors are really starting to get interesting with Gagne.
