UFA Pavel Kubina hopes to extend his career
Pavel Kubina - D - Philadelphia Flyers
May 15, 2012 - 7:45 AM ET

Pavel Kubina would be interested in returning to Philadelphia next season if the organization decides it wants him back.

"Hopefully I can play for a few more years," said the 35-year-old pending unrestricted free agent. "I love this game, that's why I came here. If the Flyers called me, I would answer. I think [GM] Paul Holmgren did a great job with this team. If you look at this team, you look at their age with 10 guys around 20-22 years, you realize how much potential and future they have. They're going to be in great shape for the next 5-to-10 years. They're just going to get better." His play has been on the decline for the past three seasons, but he could still serve as a veteran depth defender with some fantasy value.
