The Philadelphia Flyers have been in search for personality for quite some time, fans being used to the broad street bully style of play have yet to see anything remotely close to those days, as the Flyers have a ''soft roster''.
The Flyers made their first ''tough guy'' signing this off-season which included former Minnesota Wild fighter Nic Deslauriers, the 6 foot 4, 214 pound forward looks to bring the Flyers a familiar toughness as he roughed up Nic Seeler, a Flyers defenseman just last season.
Well, the Flyers sure are not done adding toughness, as they have officially signed another Antoine Roussel, a true tough as nails player just yesterday.
But it appears as if the Flyers are not done, and Chuck Fletcher may have his first win of the off-season with this announcement..

The Flyers have officially signed Artem Anisimov to a professional tryout contract, and he will likely make the opening night roster.
Anisimov is a 6-foot 4 Russian powerforward and has spent fourteen years around the NHL with teams like the Chicago Blackhawks, Ottawa Senators, New York Rangers and more.
He has tallied up nearly 400 points in 700 career games in the NHL but stepped away from the game just a year ago and took one season off, he looks to get back in the groove with the Philadelphia Flyers.
