Flyers might bring back Niittymaki: The Sports Xchange reports Ray Emery is the only goalie under contract for the Flyers heading into the June amateur draft. There is a possibility the club will re-sign Antero Niittymaki as a backup, but that seems unlikely as the club looks for some inexpensive experience on the free-agent market, perhaps by even reaching out to former Flyers netminder Robert Esche, who, like Emery, played in Russia last season.

Fantasy Analysis
Niittymaki was 15-8-6 with a 2.76 GAA and .912 save percentage in 32 games last season. He has primarily been Martin Biron's backup the last two seasons after getting his chance, and failing, to be Philly's top netminder. It appears he is going to have to be a backup goalie to start the 2009-10 season. Unless that changes, consider Niittymaki a low-end Fantasy flier Draft Day.
