We're having our first successful season under my tenure as General Manager. Flyers are starting to transition into a Contender position in the NHL and that was apparent when we traded our 1st and 2nd in this upcoming draft plus prospect Igor Korolev(1.5/2.5) to Vancouver for Pavel Bure(3/4)/ The Canucks were floundering towards the bottom of the Pacific Division and we were hovering around 3rd in the Atlantic. The deal has paid off well for both teams as the Canucks have had a resurgence and overtaken Edmonton and Los Angeles for 2nd in the Pacific, with Korolev scoring 6 goals and adding 6 assists.



We've had a lot of scoring and peaked at #2 for GF, behind those pesky Penguins....Forsberg has developed into a 3.5 Player, Zhamnov is now a LW and usually on a line with Yashin. Renberg has been our goal scorer and was on pace for 50 in 50 at the 28 game mark before an injury knocked him out for 3 weeks. LeClair hasn't been scoring at the same clip as last season, but he is leading the team with 44 assists. Flyers have six 20+ goal scorers with Brind'Amour knocking on that door with 16. Rookie Kenny Jonsson has been a welcoming addition to our blueline and has been very solid.



As far as transactions besides the Bure deal, we've been quiet. We did negotiate extensions to Hextall, Forsberg, Desjardins, and Greg Johnson for multiple years.
