Philadelphia Flyers Lockup James van Riemsdyk


The Philadelphia Flyers have signed left winger James van Riemsdyk to a six year extention, which will annually pay him 4.250 million a year.

Van Riemsdyk put up a respectable 40 points in 75 games last season, playing in a third line supporting role for the Flyers.

However with the departure of top six forwards, Mike Richards and Jeff Carter, the Flyers expect more production from the young sniper as his playing time will increase.

In last year's playoffs, van Riemsdyk was one of the Flyer's most dynamic players, putting up 7 points; all goals, in eleven games.

James van Riemsdyk was drafted second overall by the Philadelphia Flyers in 2007.
