I love how Sportsnet always calls the guys who have just been traded to get their reaction.

It makes sense, need for need. Not only does Edmonton have those other guys, but Minnesota just dealt Zidlicky, and Gilbert can be an offensive guy for them

This is strictly a hockey deal IMO

Oduya is a Flyers killer. He's probably going to Boston.

yeah he really killed the flyers when he axed his stick over the crossbar after the moves like jagr finished off the jets

That would make the Rags much better adding another veteran defenseman.

Look at his numbers when he was a Devil. I was at a game where he had 4 points against the Flyers.

Seems as though things are starting to pick up. There should be some interesting moves about to come

The Flyers have to be close to something, they wouldn't have sent down Wellwood if they weren't planning to do something IMO

15-20 trade deadline trades usually each year. I think there will be plenty more trades coming before the deadline is over- Ken Holland, Detroit GM on NHL Network.

Plenty of time for this pace to pick up.

If that is true then there is a firesale of D men out of Detroit (a serious cup contender). Dominoes about to fall big time?

I honestly dont think Wellwood has anything to do with the Flyers making a move. Homer made two decent trades already and I dont know if he is going to pull the trigger on anything else before the deadline is over.

Wellwood did not have to be on #Phantoms' roster til March 5 to be eligible for AHL playoffs. He was sent to ADR today. #Flyers
