The Philadelphia Flyers have acquired 32 year old winger Simon Gagne from the Los Angeles Kings in exchange for a 4th round pick, the Flyers announced. This will mark the second stint for Gagne who had no goals and 5 assists in 11 games for the Kings. Gagne had been a healthy scratch of late after opening the year in a top-2 line role for Los Angeles.

Gagne was the Flyers 1st round pick in 1998 and played 10 seasons in Philadelphia.
