What happened: Danila Klimovich has signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Philadelphia Flyers carrying an $850,000 average annual value. The 23-year-old winger will become a restricted free agent when the deal expires. Vancouver drafted him 41st overall in 2021, but he never appeared in an NHL game during his time in the organization.

Why it matters: The move gives the 6-foot-2 winger a fresh path to the NHL after five years in the Canucks system without a call-up. Philadelphia adds a young, physical scoring option on a low-cost, low-risk deal that keeps him club-controlled as an RFA next summer.

What to watch: Watch whether Klimovich can crack Philadelphia's roster in training camp or opens the 2026-27 season in the AHL. His RFA status next summer will hinge on how much NHL time he earns this year.
