Flyers Sign Free-Agent Goalie, Add Centers and Defensemen

PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA, JUN 30 – The Flyers signed center Christian Dvorak to a $5.4 million one-year contract and goaltender Dan Vladar to a two-year deal to improve depth after releasing Louie Belpedio.

  • The Philadelphia Flyers released defenseman Louie Belpedio on June 30, 2025, as part of offseason roster changes.
  • General manager Danny Briere indicated in April that the team had a limited window to add players from outside during free agency to address key needs.
  • The Flyers bolstered their roster by signing Christian Dvorak to a one-season contract worth $5.4 million, bringing in goaltender Dan Vladar on a two-year, $6.7 million deal, and agreeing to one-year contracts with defensemen Noah Juulsen and Dennis Gilbert, as well as center Lane Pederson.
  • Dvorak, a 29-year-old former Montreal player who secured a faceoff win rate of 55.2 percent across four seasons, is anticipated to take on the fourth-line center position vacated by the traded Ryan Poehling.
  • The Flyers aim to improve in the 2025-26 season under Briere and president Keith Jones while maintaining their rebuilding plans and evaluating new acquisitions like Dvorak over one year.
