The Flyers have acquired LW Simon Gagne from Los Angeles for a conditional 4th round draft pick, previously acquired from Phoenix.

Its nice to see him back. Always a class guy. I know there will be people who say hes washed up and this does nothing for us but face it we most likely will not see playoffs this year anyhow. Let a fan fave come back to finish his career.

So glad he's back. I had to force myself to not type the entire thread in caps when I saw it.

maybe Homer's trying to shake that bad karma that has been following him around. The flyers record is 9-11-1.....help!
at least Gaggy can snipe with the best of them. hope he develops some chemistry with someone.

Just kidding. He's one of the most liked players to ever don the orange and black.
My favorite team is the Orange & Black and whoever beats Pittsburgh......

Definitely a legend. He played for the Flyers for 10 years, he once had a near 50 goal season, he scored famous clutch goals in the Playoffs (ot goal in ECF game 6 in 2004, OT goal against boston in game 4, then the 4th goal in game 7), etc. Pure class act. Plays 2 way. The only bad thing about him is that he gets injured every year.

This sounds great! I like it. Let's hope he can do some magic despite his age and tendency to get injured.
Still feel we could get a D or two, though? Someone above mentioned Byfuglien - from what I have read about him maybe that wouldnt be a bad idea.

Oh man WELCOME BACK! I will take it. I originally thought bring back the K G B line (Old man line now lol) but I would like to see him with Couturier. Nice 2-way french connection and scorer w couts passing would be nice. Plus gagne ws in his shoes back in the day. I like the move. Now get rid of Briere! KEEP COUTS! Saw his name mentioned on TFP and few other places...
Sorry and Good call on playoffs lax but don't think any of us could imagine being this close to the bottom lol. Here is hoping we get Jones or Drouin!!

This looks like a good move to me. Our 2nd line LW was going to be lacking after Read went down.
How we get the cap space is what I want to know?
Maybe Danny B(or Coburn)+ is going to be moved for a Dman, or something along those lines.
I think this is the beginning of something a little bigger imho, hopefully for the blueline!
