He's been pretty good in a 3rd pairing, limited role this year. Hasn't been great at exits, but been pretty decent at entry defense, particularly for a 3rd pairing guy.
Certain GMs will like him because he's a meat and potatoes type guy. Will stick up for his teammates, tough customer type guy. I imagine he'll also get the moniker of good teammate.
He's probably not a bad trade target for team, because they can get him cheap and he's not likely to hurt the team.
I don’t deny he’s been good defensively in a third pair role this season (the numbers back it up). But he’s 29 & will be 30 going into next season. Prior to this year he was a AAAA player essentially. So that’s not really something I want to bet on continuing going forward especially when anybody at the bottom of lineup is replacement caliber by nature regardless of quality. I don’t care if the Flyers haven’t had good depth defensemen before since a good chunk of that is self inflected. Seeler isn’t some 24-25 year old in the mist of his peak where I could buy the argument for keeping him nor are the Flyers contending for anything noteworthy this or not year. So the play should be to sell high.
