Just chuckled at the thought of Briere still moving Seeler before tomorrow afternoon, given the NTC doesn't kick in until next season.
If only Chuck Fletcher was employed elsewhere...

The people most excited about this contract were probably the same people who liked the Ristolainen extension two years ago.

There isn't a single person that liked the Ristolainen extention. I'm calling bullshit.

It's an acceptable contract for what should be a bottom-pair defenseman.
The hope is that he can stay healthy and be trade-filler for when the team needs to make a progressive move.

There's at least one. And unfortunately for all of us, he's now the President of Hockey Operations.

The price is right, but the term isn't. You don't sign bottom pairing defenseman, especially when they're over 30, to 4 year deals

I hate this team
I this was
instead, 4 years and 2 years of a NTC is where it becomes idiotic.
A 2 year deal, few would complain given who we have on the farm to replace him.Nick Seeler is the new Nick Schultz.
Breaking down this comparison for my own benefit...
Hextall signed Nick Schultz for 1 x $1.25m as a UFA on 7/2/14, one of his first signings as Flyers GM. Schultz was about to be 32 and was coming off a poor season where Edmonton traded him to CBJ for a 5th round pick. But he had a strong 14-15 season as a defensive #4/5, leading the Flyers in blocks with 166. Next best was MDZ with 128.

This earned him a 2 x $2.25m extension, signed on 2/20/15, a couple weeks before the deadline. Unfortunately, an aging Schultz struggled to maintain the level of play from his contract season, and in the final year he only played 28 games. Btw, an AAV of $2.25m in 2015 would be $2.72m under the current cap.
Seeler currently leads the Flyers with 184 blocks. York is next best with 124.

I love the "it doesnt matter" or "i dont care" before Mitchkov comes over comments or "the Cap goes up" comments.
As if we begin with a clean slate when Mitchkov comes over and we can draft a whole new team around him and nothing we acquire and develop before will matter one bit. Its the other way around!!
We need to develop and draft players before Mitchkov comes because they need to be good players and ready to play on a winning team. Or we are donthe same thing we have done with Giroux. Sourrounding him with middle of the pack players and never be able to content for a title! 4years of Seeler are things that stop.us from building the right way!
That is why i care for every move, every small tiny move! The most authentics will never get that....

Leave it to the Flyers to turn a feel good story into a future albatross.

This. The number is fine for 2 years. At least it isn't a NMC. I assume he could be sent down.
Someone delete this thread so I’m not reminded of this contract anymore.

Another option would be making Seeler wear the Gritty suit.

Going to have to, when the corpse of Sean Couturier and a declining Konecny are making 18 million and Michkov needs to be signed.

Due to multiple injuries, Seeler has only played 8 out of the 21 games since singing this extension. Who could have forseen that a 31 year old, #5 dman whose main skill is getting hit by the puck might have trouble staying healthy.

Truly, nobody could have known it would be a lot smarter to move the aging dman who has never been anything and managed a career peak year during a contract negotiation.
