Damn. Understandable though since he came from the blue jackets system and knows torts. Happy for him to continue to get a shot in the NHL

Anyone remember Torts' Jackets team that had 108 pts and won 16 straight? Sedlak was his 4C.

He was a solid player, good size and speed and played hard. He could have stayed in the league but wanted to be 1C in Europe. I don't know if he can still measure up in the NHL but I like the pickup by the Flyers.

The Avs fans think he looked awful....

Lukas Sedlak is a defensive 4C that’s decent on the walls and in the corners but not much of an offensive threat. Sedlak was a decent faceoff man in his time with Columbus but spent the last 3 seasons in the KHL with Traktor Chelyabinsk.

Lukas Sedlak was going to sign a contract with Pardubice but took an out clause to sign back in the NHL with Colorado, the avs were probably going to stash him in Loveland had he cleared waivers but Philly placed a claim to reunite Sedlak with Torts.

3 was enough of a sample size.

Well, I guess it's more than the two games Chris Kunitz got in an Atlanta Thrashers uniform before being waived, and then proceeding to play over 1000 games, scoring 600 points, winning four Stanley Cups and an Olympic gold.

It's almost as if players can fit in in different ways with different teams.

An AHL/NHL tweener. These players litter every single NHL club and their AHL affiliates.

This guy is definitely a tier below NAK as players.
