For Brayden Schenn and Flyers, short-term deal could make sense

For an example, see John LeClair’s hearing with the Flyers in the summer of 2000 when he was eventually awarded a record $7 million deal for one year by the arbitrator. The Flyers offered $5 million and then went on to argue LeClair’s weaknesses as a player during the hearing. Remember when Michael Del Zotto came to terms with the Flyers last year before a scheduled hearing?
