Kent Huskins is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this summer. Flyers GM Paul Holmgren is considering re-signing Huskins, but he cautioned that the team is still in the evaluation process. Still, he had nothing but good things to say about Huskins, who is out with a concussion. "He's been around the block a few times and he's played in a lot of big games and it shows," Holmgren said. "He played on a Stanley Cup champion. That experience is something that you can't teach young players. When you have a guy ... and we were missing an older [veteran], that's what he brought to our team. We pretty much know what Kent did and what he does for a team. He's not going to rush the puck end to end. He is going to play defense and move the puck up. He's a quality person." Philadelphia acquired Huskins from Detroit for a conditional seventh round draft pick. He would provide the Flyers with some extra defensive depth, but he doesn't have any fantasy value.

Kent Huskins suffered a concussion Monday night following a high hit from Montreal's Ryan White.

Huskins left Friday's 5-3 victory over the Blues after a crushing hit by David Backes, but the impact looked worse that it was.
