Philadelhpia Flyers News & Notes:

After acquiring Andrei Kuzmenko and Jakob Pelletier from the Calgary Flames, the Flyers continue scouring the market to improve their roster.

While the Avalanche made the biggest splash, moving Mikko Rantanen to the Carolina Hurricanes, they’ve created roughly $4.7m in cap space for the Trade Deadline and are poised to make another addition.
