Flyers immediately win Egor Zamula trade by a landslide

Danny Briere has done it again — and it’s only slightly tongue-in-cheek. The Philadelphia Flyers acquired former first-round pick Philip Tomasino from the Pittsburgh Penguins last week for disgruntled defenseman Egor Zamula. Zamula had fallen out of favor in Philadelphia under Rick Tocchet and changed his representation in an attempt to facilitate a contract termination. Briere and the Flyers didn’t give in to Zamula’s demands, though, insisting that they would be able to trade the d...
