Hartman scored two goals and added four assists in 19 games for the Flyers. He came over in the Wayne Simmonds trade last year.
Pitlick is 27 years old, a center who scored 22 goals in his last two seasons with the Dallas Stars. He has one year remaining on his contract at $1 million. Hartman was a RFA, so I guess this was about getting some value back for him. Could have asked for too much money or didn’t want to re-sign here. Shrug.
Thoughts on the move?
I personally believe the Stanley Cup is coming home to Philadelphia.
