"It was a bit of a surprising move earlier this season when former Philadelphia Flyers general manager Ron Hextall found a new home. That home? The rival Pittsburgh Penguins. One of Hextall's first moves was claiming Flyers' Defenseman Mark Friedman off waivers. Friedman was pretty happy with the move and took a shot at the city of Philadelphia recently when talking about the difference. "There is more of a homier feel than Philadelphia. It's not as busy, not as noisy, nicer people. It's not as dirty, especially in Cranberry where I live. It's just a great neighborhood."
