Keith Jones, who made the hiring decision, praised Sharp's ability to win, having won 3 Stanley Cups with the Chicago Blackhawks dynasty. Jones believes that Sharp is the right person to help build a winning team in Philadelphia.
Sharp was initially sent to the Blackhawks in 2005, along with Eric Meloche and Matt Ellison and a 3rd round pick in 2006.
He played 66 games with the Flyers and won a Calder Cup in 2005 with the Phantoms.
