The Flyers only made one move on deadline day, and it was for the Phantoms, ...the Flyers aquired F Tom Sestito, from Columbus for the Phantoms Greg Moore and prospect Michael Chaput
Sestito's a big LW who's shown some, but not alot of offensive ability, ...maybe has a shot as checking line player down the line, but certainly not a blue chipper.
Chaput's a two way center, probably a little more skill, and less size, who would have had a hard time ever breaking into the Flyers thoughts.
Moore's a veteran AHL energy guy who's bounced around down there, ...he almost cracked the Rangers roster out of camp a while back mostly for his hustle during the preseason games, back when he was still in the "propsect" age range.
Holmgren wound up with about two million dollars of unused cap space and was reported kicking the tires about Florida's Marty Reasoner who probably would have been a nice pickup, so it looks like Wellwood or Testwuide will be the calling if the Flyers wind up losing more than two forwards to injury.
