NHL News: Flyers, Kings, Coyotes, and Hurricanes

The Flyers re-sign Louis Belpedio

Puck Pedia: The Philadelphia Flyers have re-signed defenseman Louis Belpedio to a two-year deal with a $775,000 cap hit.

He’ll get $775,000 in the NHL, $450,000 in the minors with $475,000 guaranteed.

The Kings send Sean Durzi to the Coyotes for a draft pick

Frank Seravalli: The Los Angeles Kings have traded defenseman Sean Durzi to the Arizona Coyotes for a 2024 second-round pick (Montreal’s).

Puck Pedia: Durzi has one year left at a $1.7 million cap hit and will be an RFA when the deal expires.

He’d be owed a $2 million qualifying offer.

David Alter: “Probably the most shocking thing about the Coyotes’ trade for Durzi has less to do with the player and more about the fact that the player’s salary is HIGHER ($2 mill) than his cap hit ($1.7 mil). You don’t see that from Arizona too often.”
