Couldn't believe this when I saw it on my fantasy team this AM..wasn't too surprised when they traded Brad Richards but didn't think they'd let go of Prospal!!
From Yahoo Fantasy Hockey....
Feb 25 The Flyers have acquired high-scoring forward Vaclav Prospal in a trade with Tampa Bay, sending minor-league defenseman Alexandre Picard and a conditional pick in the 2009 draft to the Lightning.
Advice: The move came a day before the NHL trade deadline. The move was announced immediately after the Flyers ended a 10-game losing skid with a 4-3 win over the Buffalo Sabres. Philadelphia has been depleted by injuries after losing Mike Richards, who tore a hamstring last weekend. They're also minus star forward Simon Gagne (concussion) and defenseman Derian Hatcher (knee). Prospal should continue to be a solid fantasy contributor with the Flyers
