The Philadelphia Flyers have made a bold move, general Manager Danny Briere made a solid trade as his first with the organization by trading away defenseman Ivan Provorov and acquiring Cal Petersen from the Los Angeles Kings.

Petersen had a rough season, allowing numerous goals behind a well structured Kings defense and eventually being demoted to the AHL, the Flyers somehow see potential in him, or did they take on his awful $5,000,000 contract as compensation for Sean Walker, one 1st round and two 2nd round picks they also received from trading Provorov?
With the team currently in a rebuilding phase, Petersen's struggles could align with their tanking strategy. Furthermore, the move comes amidst rumors of Carter Hart's potential departure from Philadelphia.
The Flyers' openness to trade their star goalie suggests that Petersen may be between the pipes as the starter or backup come opening night.
