Flyers Land AmonteArchived from 2002-03 season. | |
The Philadelphia Flyers acquired three-time 40-goal scorer Tony Amonte from the Phoenix Coyotes for two draft picks and a minor leaguer.
In exchange for Amonte, the Coyotes get left wing Guillaume Lefebvre, Philadelphia's second-round draft pick in the 2004 draft and Atlanta's third-round pick this season, which the Flyers got in a trade last season. "He's not just a scorer. He's got great speed, great hands. He can kill penalties and can be used in the last couple of minutes of a period or a game," Flyers general manager Bob Clarke said. "This is a real top acquisition to our club." Red Wings Beef Up Blueline "I'm very excited to get the chance to win the Stanley Cup. And if there was one team I wanted to go to was the Detroit Red Wings," Schneider said Oilers Send Carter To Rangers Carter is in the final year of his contract and the Oilers couldn't afford to re-sign him.
