The Flyers DESPERATELY need D help. They need two top four D, in a hurry.

Will Holmgren go to the free agent market to fill his holes? Or, will he make a trade?

Reggie Sekera ( $2.75 x 3 years cap hit) and Jordan Leopold ($3 million for one remaining season) could help stop the bleeding D crisis for Philly.

The Sabres are thick on their NHL blueline, having 8 quality D to play 6 spots. Myers, Ehrhoff, Regehr, Leopold, Sulzer, Weber, McNabb, and Pardy, The Amerks are loaded too, with Brennan, Pysyk, Leduc-Gauthier, and Finley waiting for their chance to play with the big boys.

Here's Buffalo's D gold mine:

Defense

Myers $5,500,000
Regehr $4,020,000
Ehrhoff $4,000,000
Leopold $3,000,000
Sekera $2,750,000
Pardy $2,000,000
Weber $950,000
Sulzer $725,000
Brennan $550,000
McNabb $900,000
Pysyk $870,000
G.-Leduc $870,000
MacKenzie $750,000
Schiestel $577,500
Biega $577,500
Crawford $571,667
Finley $525,000


If he so chooses, Holmgren can go the UFA route. good luck with that.
