    Buying out the guy you traded Scott Hartnell for. Nice work on both ends by Flyers management.

    It's the right move and an appropriate outcome to that awful trade a couple years back.

    I still cannot believe that deal. It was a trainwreck the moment it was consummated.

    The line was that they wanted the cap room, and now they have it sooner. They need to not waste it on another Andrew MacDonald.

    I think that would have been great. Keep Hartnell and dont sign MacDonald to a stupid contract. Jeez.... dont get me started.
