Philadelphia Flyers GM Paul Holmgren hinted that Michael Leighton might fill the team's vacated backup spot.
After trading away Sergei Bobrovsky, the Flyers have a serious question to answer in the No. 2 spot - especially if Ilya Bryzgalov's struggles weren't a fluke. For all the jokes made at Leighton's expense, it's easy to forget that he's a goalie who fought off struggles in Carolina to help Philly make a deep playoff run only to get shipped down after more bad luck. It's hard to argue against the notion that he doesn't deserve another shot.
