FLYERS NEWS

The Flyer's stayed busy today. They sent Kyle Greentree to the Calgary Flames for defenseman Tim Ramholt, who spent all but one game last season in the AHL. So obviously the Flyer's are just hoping he'll give them some depth. He had better since the Flyer's also traded defenseman Janne Niskala, whom they had just acquired for that reason, to the Tampa Bay Lightning, for a 6th round pick in the next year's draft, and they released defenseman Denis Gauthier, who didn't do much in 43 games last season, recording 0 goals and 4 assists, for an underwhelming plus-minus of -11. Thus, thrust into duty due to injury in the Eastern conference finals, Gauthier didn't respond well, and is probably one reason why the Flyer's lost the series. So it's probably a good idea to let him go.
Anyhow, that concludes this episode of as the Flyer's turn.
