The Philadelphia Flyers are interested in bringing Erik Johnson back

Kevin Kurz: The Philadelphia Flyers have spoken with pending UFA defenseman Erik Johnson and his camp.

Johnson is interested in playing another season and he does have some interest in returning to Philadelphia.

The Philadelphia Flyers are exploring Cam Atkinson options

Darren Dreger: The Philadelphia are exploring their options with forward Cam Atkinson.

The San Jose Sharks had interest in Atkinson but he wasn’t really interested in going there.

The Flyers are willing to retain some salary. He has a year left on his contract at $5.875 million ($5.275 million salary).

A buyout is also a possibility.

A buyout would carry a $2,358,334 cap hit this year and $1,758,334 cap hit for 2025-26. It would save the Flyers $3,516,666 in cap space this year but add $1,758,334 in 2025-26.
