A couple of weeks ago we had the latest on Blair Betts and how he was basically sitting around waiting for teams to call him and offer him a contract.
According to both Jim Cerney and Ryan Bright, beat writers for the Rangers and the Flyers - Blair Betts has been invited by the Flyers to their training camp.
No doubt in my mind now that Betts will be a Flyer by the end of training camp. After watching him for the past few years as a Ranger, there is no way that he goes to a training camp and doesn't get offered a contract. He's one of the best penalty killers and shot-blocking forwards in the entire league. A solid addition for the Flyers for their fourth line.

Looks li! ke Mark Bell, who the Rangers claimed off waivers from Toronto last season will also be heading to the Flyers' training camp.
