The Philadelphia Flyers placed defenseman Tony DeAngelo on unconditional waivers Friday.
The Flyers intend to buy out his contract if he clears waivers, according to multiple reports. He carries a $5 million cap hit for 2023-24.
DeAngelo, 27, recorded 42 points (11 goals, 31 assists) in 70 games in his first season with Philadelphia in 2022-23.
He has 199 points (45 goals, 154 assists) and 305 penalty minutes in 340 games with the Arizona Coyotes (2016-17), New York Rangers (2017-21), Carolina Hurricanes (2021-22) and Flyers.
The Tampa Bay Lightning drafted the New Jersey native in the first round (19th overall) in 2014. Philadelphia acquired him in a July 2022 trade with the Hurricanes.
