NHL Trade Rumors: Green, Glendening, Brassard, More
February 20th, 2018 A fairly substantial trade happened on Monday when the Philadelphia Flyers picked up goaltender Petr Mrazek.

January 1st, 2017 Divisional rivals. Original six franchises. And both teams are on the outside of the playoff picture in 2016 and heading into 2017.
