The Panthers have signed Radio Gudas to a three-year deal worth $7.5 million ($2.5M AAV).

Gudas is a big, (6-foot, 204 lbs) rugged defenseman that picked up 13 points (2G / 13A) with 164 hits and 75 blocked shots in 63 games in 2020. After a brief one-year stop in Washington, Gudas heads to Florida, where he'll likely be a third-pairing defenseman.

The Capitals have acquired Radko Gudas from the Flyers for Matt Niskanen.

Gudas is heading into the final year of his four-year deal that carries a $3.35 million cap-hit, versus Niskanen’s two remaining years at $5.75 million. Gudas is coming off of one of his best offensive seasons, scoring four goals with 16 assists (20 points) in 77 games. Gudas was second on the Flyers in hits (255) and tied for third in blocked shots (133). He will help bolster the Capitals penalty-kill, where he played 2:37 per game last year—second among Flyers skaters.

Gudas (upper body) will not play on Thursday.

Gudas exited Wednesday’s game after being hit by Brandon Saad and will not be in the lineup tonight in St. Louis. With Gudas out, the Flyers will dig deeper into the D-man pool, bringing Will O’Neill in to make his NHL debut. Consider Gudas as questionable for Saturday’s game.

Gudas left Wednesday’s game with an upper-body injury and did not return.

Gudas left yesterday’s game in the first period after being hit by Blackhawks’ forward Brandon Saad. This is another big blow to the Flyers’ blueline that is already without Shayne Gostisbehere, Andrew MacDonald and Samuel Morin. Consider Gudas as doubtful for Thursday's game in St. Louis.

Gudas served his suspension and will make his season debut on Tuesday.

Gudas’ six-game suspension is up and he will play tonight vs. the Sabres. Gudas is often among the league’s hits leaders, but doesn’t provide a whole lot in the way of offence—Gudas had 14 points (5G / 9A) in 76 games a season ago.
