The Flyers could have gotten a draft pick for the veteran defenseman, but he's proved to be a pivotal player in the team's success this season.
While the Flyers chose to trade Walker to Colorado for the reward of a first-round pick, they went the opposite direction with Seeler, signing the rugged veteran to a four-year contract extension at an average annual value of $2.7 million. The move was a clear statement from the organization of how much it values Seeler, who turns 31 in June, as both a player and figure within the locker room.
There’s more to Seeler’s game and role on this team besides just blocking shots. He’s a warrior, as his old defensive partner Walker said, and yes, there’s a chance that every time he puts his body in front of a shot it takes another minute off his career. And sure he’s not a point producer — although the analytics will tell you that Seeler and Walker were stealthily adept at aiding the dudes he’s on the ice with scoring, even if he wasn’t the one getting on the scoresheet.
