According to the NHL Players Association website R.J. Umberger took the arbitration route in negotiating a contract with the Flyers. He is the only Flyer to do so.
Drafted by Vancouver in the 1st round Umberger never signed with them, over money issues. He didn’t play a year but then signed in 2004 with the Flyers. Umberger has played one season at the NHL level and takes arbitration?
Hhmmm …. According to Shawn every player that has taken the Flyers to arbitration recently has been traded within a year.
Should we take bets now on when he will be traded?

At least the Flyers aren’t going through what Buffalo is right now. Twelve players going to arbitration? Wow.
