Flyers sign Brandon Manning to 2-year deal
by from on (#1NHD5)
The Philadelphia Flyers agreed to terms with their final outstanding restricted free agent Tuesday, signing Brandon Manning to a two-year contract worth $1.95 million, Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman reports.
The defender was scheduled to attend a meeting with a salary arbitrator.
Manning scored a goal and seven points last season, his first exclusively at the NHL level since turning professional in 2011-12.
His signing presents another hurdle for Ivan Provorov, Samuel Morin, and the exciting group of defensive prospects the Flyers have assembled in recent drafts.
