Off-season

edit

The Flyers first major move of the off-season was trading for the negotiating rights to New York Islanders defenseman Mark Streit, an impending unrestricted free agent, for a fourth-round pick in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft and minor league forward Shane Harper.[3] Streit signed a four-year, $21 million contract with the Flyers.[4]

Following the 2012–13 NHL lockout each team was granted two compliance buyouts to be exercised after the 2012–13 season and/or after the 2013–14 season that would not count against the salary cap in any further year, regardless of the player's age.[5] The Flyers used their two compliance buyouts on June 27, 2013, buying out centerman Danny Briere[6] and goaltender Ilya Bryzgalov.[7] Briere had two years and $5 million left on the eight-year, $52 million contract he signed with the Flyers on July 1, 2007. Bryzgalov had seven years and $34.5 million left on the nine-year, $51 million contract he signed with the Flyers on June 23, 2011.

The Flyers made two major signings in free agency. Former Tampa Bay Lightning centerman Vincent Lecavalier, who had been bought out by the team he spent his first 14 NHL seasons with, signed a five-year, $22.5 million contract on July 2, 2013.[8] Former Flyers goaltender Ray Emery, who had spent the previous season with the Chicago Blackhawks, returned to Flyers by signing a one-year, $1.65 million contract on July 5.[9] On the same day, the Flyers signed star center Claude Giroux to an eight-year contract extension worth $66.2 million.[10]

Regular season

edit

After a second consecutive 0–3 start to the regular season, Head Coach Peter Laviolette and Assistant Coach Kevin McCarthy were fired on October 7. Assistant Coach Craig Berube, who previously played for the Flyers and served two stints as head coach of the Flyers' AHL affiliate, the Philadelphia Phantoms, was named the new head coach while John Paddock and Ian Laperriere were announced as Berube's assistant coaches. Assistant Coach Joe Mullen and Goaltending Coach Jeff Reese were also retained.[11]

Notes

edit
  1. ^ a b Laviolette was fired on October 7 and replaced by Berube. McCarthy was also fired and Laperriere and Paddock were named assistant coaches.
  2. ^ Affiliation was dissolved in late October.
  3. ^ The Flyers retained half of Meszaros' $4 million cap hit.[25]
  4. ^ The 3rd-round pick would have upgraded to a 2nd-round pick if the Bruins reached the Eastern Conference Finals and Meszaros played in at least 2/3 of their 2014 Stanley Cup playoff games, or if Meszaros re-signed with the Bruins before the 2014 NHL Entry Draft.[26] Neither condition was met and the draft pick remained a 3rd-rounder. If Meszaros re-signed with the Bruins for the 2014–15 season after the draft began the Flyers would have received an additional 2015 4th-round pick,[26] but Meszaros signed with the Buffalo Sabres on July 1, 2014.[27]
  5. ^ In parentheses is the player's free agency group on July 5 if applicable.[34]
  6. ^ Briere signed with Montreal on July 4.[35]
  7. ^ Bryzgalov signed with Edmonton on November 8.[37]
  8. ^ Gagne was inactive during the 2013–14 season.
  9. ^ Knuble retired.[39]
