RUMOUR: No Room For Promising Defenseman

A clogged blue line might have one team scrambling to integrate a promising young defenseman.

 

With a little over $413,000 of salary cap space, the Philadelphia Flyers will have to come up with a solution in order to make room for Ivan Provorov, as per The Bleacher Report.

 

The 19-year-old is set to make the cut out of training camp yet his $894,167 cap hit places the Flyers in a tough situation. The names of Mark Streit, Andrew MacDonald, Nick Schultz and Brandon Manning are raised when it comes to trade rumours and/or demotions in the case of the 38-year-old Streit, though it’s going to be tough to convince a team to take any of these players off of their hands as there’s very little interest in any of them.
