Flyers add superstar scorer

PHILLY (AP) -

After struggling in the past two weeks, the Flyers have landed high powered offensive machine Milan Hejduk to bolster the scoring ability of the team. The superstar came at a steep price, as top prospect Jeff Carter and defensive specialist John Madden have been sent to Tampa Bay.

"I felt I could afford to move Madden with the strong play of Bergeron and the defensive abilities of both Primeau and Handzus. We will have to add a fourth line centre, but we have plenty of time for that."

Rumour has it MacInnis has sat by idly for long enough and is looking to pull off another huge deal.
