The Flyers just traded Ned Lukacevic and a conditional pick for Andrew Alberts from the Boston Bruins. Another 3rd pairing defenseman to help us out until Randy Jones gets back around Thanksgiving (18-year-old Luca Sbisa looks pretty good, but they have to send him back to Lethbridge after 9 games, or this counts as a year toward free agency for him). Looks like it will be:
Timonen-Vaananen
Coburn-Eminger
Sbisa-Alberts
Kukkonen
for the next few games, then Kukkonen takes Sbisa's spot on the 3rd pairing. Not great, but we gave up very little for a serviceable guy.
