*-> Nikolai Zherdev has signed a 1 year deal with the Philadelphia Flyers this afternoon. The deal is still being undisclosed but it's rumored that it's around the 2 million mark. Zherdev played last season for Atlant of the KHL. The Flyers are right up against the cap and are looking to make a salary cap dumping trade to clear up room. Simon Gagne has already agreed to lift his no trade clause to help the Flyers find a deal. The Los Angeles Kings are the main suitors but are waiting to see how the Ilya Kovalchuk bidding ends before they make such a move. Jeff Carter is another Flyer that has been linked all season long to a deal. The Blue Jackets and the Nashville Predators both have shown interest in the past while the florida Panthers are reported to be in the hunt now. The Flyers have also been linked to Marty Turco as they wish to add to their goaltending qaulity and depth. The Flyer also have 2 RFA's they wish to resign in Daniel Carcillo and Darroll Powe. Expect a move or two in the up coming weeks.
