The 26-year-old was acquired by the Flyers from the Detroit Red Wings - who drafted him in the fifth round back in 2010 - in February, where he was went 6-6-3 in 17 games with a 3.22 GAA and a .891 save percentage.

While he's still young and the last couple seasons haven't been his brightest, Mrazek does have experience serving as a No. 1, including during the 2015-16 campaign where he put up a respectable 27-16-6 record with a 2.33 GAA and a .921 save percentage in 54 games.

With the free-agent interview period in full swing, teams can begin calling on Mrazek.
