How might the latest developments in the Flyers’ contract talks with Nick Seeler impact his future with the team?
On Seeler, sounds like the initial contract ask wasn’t received overly well from Philly’s side. Talks ongoing, I believe, but sounds like #LetsGoFlyers want him in the $2.5M-$3M AAV range, and Seeler’s camp is looking for a fair bit more over multi-years.

Dave Pagnotta recently mentioned ongoing contract talks between the Flyers and Nick Seeler. However, it seems there’s a bit of a snag in the negotiations. Reportedly, the offer from Seeler’s camp didn’t sit well with the Flyers. Seeler is aiming for a multi-year deal that exceeds the 2.5m-3m range that the Flyers are willing to offer.
Seeler has garnered favor among fans in recent seasons, embodying the underdog spirit that Philadelphians appreciate. A few years back, Seeler was out of the league and even contemplated retirement until former Minnesota Wild and Flyers GM Chuck Fletcher signed him.
During his time with the Flyers, Seeler has shown improvement each year, earning the support of both fans and the media. His progress is evident, now playing meaningful minutes on the second pair and leading the NHL in blocked shots.
The big question emerges: is it in the Flyers’ best interest to part ways with Nick Seeler, considering the potential cost of retaining him?
