The Flyers, having failed in their attempts to get Tomas Kaberle who would not waive his no-trade clause with Toronto, struck a deal today for Kings defenseman Jaroslav Modry.
The Flyers gave up a third-round pick in this year's draft.
"He's a sturdy two-way defenseman that would give us experience and depth," Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren said of the 6-foot-2, 220-pound defenseman. He is tied for second on the team in plus/minus at plus 2.
A number of team were interested in getting Kaberle.
