The Flyers finally made a move to shore up their defense, acquiring
Jaroslav Modry, age 36, from the
Los Angeles Kings for a third round pick. According to TSN, Modry is a "quietly effective player in the offensive zone" and has "excellent instincts". Looking at Modry's stats the last few years, he doesn't put up big points, but he is usually on the positive side in the plus/minus department.
