Report: Sabres' Greeley a candidate in Flyers' GM search

The latest candidate in the Philadelphia Flyers' search for a new general manager is Buffalo Sabres assistant GM Steve Greeley, reports TSN's Frank Seravalli.

Greeley is in his second season with the Sabres after spending two years as assistant director of player personnel with the New York Rangers. The 38-year-old was considered for the Carolina Hurricanes' GM opening earlier this year before the job went to Don Waddell.

The Flyers haven't asked the Sabres for permission to talk to Greeley yet, according to Seravalli.

Initial reports indicated Philadelphia is also considering former Minnesota Wild GM Chuck Fletcher and former Hurricanes GM Ron Francis.
