Trade Deadline - Walker Dealt/Seeler Deal

[BelmontShore]

No word on compensation, yet.

Seems like Briere was able to grab a top-10 protected 2025 1st for Walker & a 5th rd pick but to do so, they took back salary. Ryan Johansen should be the player, but he will be waived.

[The Philadelphia Flyers signed defenseman Nick Seeler to a four-year contract extension with an average annual value of $2.7 million, reports TSN's Darren Dreger.

The pact includes a full no-trade clause over the first two seasons, according to The Athletic's Chris Johnston.]

Both good moves. Seeler is affordable even if it's a 4 year deal and he's a shot blocking machine.

Walker was a throw in and to get a first for him, even while picking up salary is a steal. Look at some of the other deals that didn't get a 1st...

Always had hopes for Allison. He looked like a Tippett type but he could never stay healthy or stick. He probably needs the new surroundings.

Curious that Briere added a 26yo Russian. Mentor for Michkov?

A 35yo addition? Gotta be to provide some savvy veteran leadership for the playoff push.
