The Philadelphia Flyers have decided not to issue a qualifying offer to goaltender Carter Hart before the 5pm deadline today, allowing him to become an unrestricted free agent. This decision also affects other restricted free agents (RFAs) on the team, including Egor Zamula, Mason Millman, Will Zmolek, and Bobby Brink, who will also become free agents if not extended offers. According to a league source, Hart, who was involved in the 2018 World Junior Championship (WJC) scandal, will officially become a UFA on Monday.
Per @frank_seravalli, the #LetsGoFlyers will let Carter Hart go. The goalie is one of the five players in the 2018 WJC Scandal, and his Flyers career is over. He becomes a UFA. Read more on @TheHockeyNews.⤵️ https://t.co/QzhoGLLQMQ
Looks like Carter Hart will become a free agent tomorrow. Makes sense, although I thought they would tbh. Really makes sense https://t.co/ClniIJXuq9
No surprise, but #Flyers are not issuing a qualifying offer to Carter Hart before today’s 5pm deadline to retain his rights. Hart will become an UFA on Monday, likely along with the other four players charged in the Team Canada 2018 alleged sexual assault.
The Flyers have to extend qualifying offers to their RFA's today by 5pm. Here's a list that their RFA's, if they do not extend offers, they become free agents tomorrow Carter Hart, Egor Zamula, Mason Millman, Will Zmolek, and Bobby Brink #Flyers
Quick turnaround for the Flyers and NHL: Qualifying offers for RFA's must be submitted today by 5pm Free Agency begins Flyers Dev Camp roster will be released today or tomorrow
Not that @reporterchris needs confirmation but I've also been told from a league source that it is simply up to the Flyers whether they want to qualify Carter Hart by 5pm tomorrow or let him become a UFA.
