Flyers Acquire Syvret, Bordson from Ducks for Laliberte, Maroon

The Philadelphia Flyers announced today that they have acquired defenseman Danny Syvret and center Rob Bordson from the Anaheim Ducks in exchange for right wing David Laliberte and left wing Patrick Maroon. Of the four players involved in the trade, only Syvret has played in the NHL this season, scoring one goal and one assist in six games. All four players will be free agents next summer. This is really just a depth move for both teams, as all four players will likely spend most of this season in the minors. The only exception is Syvret, who could see time with the Flyers if injuries should mount on their blueline.
