Flyers sign Jody Shelley, Sean O’Donnell

The Flyers’ free agent frenzy has continued today with the signings of veteran right wing Jody Shelley and veteran defenseman Sean O’Donnell. Shelley, 34, agreed to a three-year deal worth $3.3 million, while O’Donnell agreed to a one-year deal worth $1 million. Shelley is a 6-foot-3, 225-pound checking-line winger who will replace Arron Asham and could make Dan Carcillo expendable. O’Donnell, 38, is a stay-at-home defenseman willing to drop the gloves and will be a solid sixth defenseman on a unit that includes former Ducks teammate Chris Pronger, Matt Carle, Kimmo Timonen, Braydon Coburn and newly acquired Andrej Meszaros.
