NHL News: Philadelphia Flyers, Brayden Schenn Avoid Arbitration

Brayden Schenn and the Philadelphia Flyers avoid salary arbitration

The Philadelphia Flyers and Brayden Schenn avoided salary arbitration this morning. They agreed on a four-year deal with a $5.125 million salary cap hit according to Bob McKenzie.

Schenn set career highs with 26 goals and 59 points last season.

The 24-year old Schenn was drafted 5th overall in the first round of the 2009 draft by the Los Angeles Kings.

The Flyers acquired Schenn, along with Wayne Simmonds and a 2012 2nd round pick from the Kings for Mike Richards and Rob Bordson.

Matt Larkin: “Brayden Schenn’s second half suggests he’s worth that $5.125-million AAV. He had 37 points in his final 38 games of 2015-16.”
