Free-agent update. The Flyers are negotiating with potential restricted free agents Jeff Carter, R.J. Umberger and Randy Jones. Holmgren said he was hopeful of signing them but was not especially close.   He was close to signing Riley Cote, another potential free agent on July 1.

In addition to signing the Big Three, one of Holmgren's off-season goals is to add a defenseman. Brian Campbell, John-Michael Liles, Mark Streit and Mike Commodore are among potential free agents who could fit the bill.

Gagne progressing. Simon Gagne, who missed the final 27 games after suffering a concussion, is working out in Quebec and champing at the bit to return, Holmgren said.  Gagne has no ill effects from the concussion, and there's no way of knowing if he's fully recovered until he starts absorbing regular contact.  Holmgren said Gagne needed to be in better condition than he was last year when camp starts.

Holmgren said there was a better than 50-50 chance that veteran defenseman Derian Hatcher would return to the club. That would make it difficult to sign one of the topflight free agents. Hatcher, limited to 44 games because of injuries last year, has a $3.5 million contract.

The Flyers chose forward James vanRiemsdyk with their No. 1 pick, the second overall, in last year's draft, and he collected 11 goals and 23 assists for the University of New Hampshire this season. The Flyers wanted vanRiemsdyk, 19, to join the organization in 2008-09, but the 6-foot-4, 210-pounder has decided to return to college and delay turning pro.

Centers Zach Boychuk and Evgeny Grachev, defensemen Vjateslav Voinov and Michael Del Zotto, and goalies Jake Allen and Kevin Poulin are among the highly ranked players who could be available at No. 27.
