In a surprising move, the Philadelphia Flyers have terminated Ryan Johansen's contract despite his slated $8 million salary next season.
With just one year remaining on his deal, Ryan Johansen was placed on unconditional waivers for contract termination, as reported by insider Elliotte Friedman.
The Philadelphia Flyers' decision appears to be linked to a material breach of contract, although specific details about the breach have not been disclosed. This development marks a significant turn in Ryan Johansen's career, as he was expected to begin his first season with the Philadelphia Flyers.
Ryan Johansen, a seasoned NHL player with 905 games, has recorded 202 goals and 578 points throughout his career. Terminating his contract is expected to lead to a grievance process, which could result in delays as the situation unfolds. The Philadelphia Flyers, however, seem prepared to navigate the potential legal challenges that may arise from this decision.
