The Washington Capitals did it – they stepped up and got themselves a tough winger, Mike Knuble, who can offer a net-front presence and help the team to score goals!
Within hours of the beginning of the free agency, Knuble, 36, a power play specialist, agreed to move to the Capitals with a two-year contract worth $2.8 million a year.
Knuble, who was one of three Flyers to play in all 82 games last season -- posted 27 goals and 20 assists. "I feel like I'm no risk because I've been healthy," he said. "I feel like I have a lot more mileage left."
The 6 ft 3 in, 228 pound Canadian-born Knuble has played the last four seasons with the Flyers, scoring 114 goals, including 49 in power play situations, and 221 points in 310 games. Knuble’s career best was 34 goals during 2005-06. Previously Knuble played with Detroit, the New York Rangers and Boston. Sphere: Related Content
