The Sabres have signed Andrej Meszaros to a one-year, $4.125 million deal.

Meszaros had seven goals and 15 assists (22 points) in 52 games with the Philadelphia Flyers and Boston Bruins last season. Meszaros should slide in and replace some of the offence the Sabres are losing with the departure of Christian Ehrhoff.

The Flyers have traded Andrej Meszaros to the Bruins for a third-round pick.

Meszaros has shuffled in and out of the lineup all season, but had recently been one of the Flyers best defensemen. Mez has five goals and 12 assists (17 points) in 38 games and goes to a team with a bunch of injuries on the blueline.

Mez expected to make his long-awaited return today for #Flyers.

Meszaros played in the first four games of the season but has sat out Philadelphia's last 21 games with a shoulder injury. He had seven goals and 18 assists in 62 games last season. He is one of Philly's best offensive defenceman so he could see a lot of power-play time.

Meszaros participated as a regular in Flyers practice this morning.

Meszaros has only appeared in four games this season but looks like he is nearing a return to the lineup. He scored 25 points in 62 games last season and is a fairly consistent fantasy option year-to-year so he would be a good depth defenceman to add to your team when he returns to the Flyers lineup.
