Roman Schmidt News: Acquired in minor-league swap

Schmidt was dealt to the Flyers from the Lightning on Monday in exchange for Ethan Samson.

The Flyers assigned Schmidt to AHL Lehigh Valley after acquiring him. The right-shot defenseman was a third-round pick (No. 96 overall) by Tampa Bay in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft. The 22-year-old has yet to make his NHL debut, and he'll now continue his development in the minors with the Phantoms.
