Tony DeAngelo was traded to the Philadelphia Flyers by the Carolina Hurricanes this off-season for three draft picks this off-season and fans were quite concerned that it may be yet another Chuck Fletcher mistake of a trade.

Carolina received a fourth-round pick (No. 101) in the 2022 k NHL Draft, a third-round pick in the 2023 draft and a second-round pick in the 2024 draft for the 26-year-old defenseman, DeAngelo, who can become a restricted free agent July 13. The Hurricanes selected defenseman Simon Forsmark with the No. 101 pick.
"It's a dream come true for me," DeAngelo said. "I was born in [New] Jersey, but really my entire family besides myself comes from Philly. That's where we lived. Been a Flyers fan since the day I can remember. Like I said, it's a dream come true. ... I could not be more excited to put the jersey over my shoulders. I'm looking forward to it."
DeAngelo has showed nothing but great skill of play in Philly so far, and has developed a off-ice relationship with Kevin Hayes and other Flyers teammates.

Chuck Fletcher:
"We felt we really struggled to move the puck, we struggled on the power play, we spent too much time in the defensive zone," Fletcher said at the 2022 draft in Montreal on Friday. "Tony is a player with very good talent. He moves the puck well, he can run a power play. We feel not only will he produce offensively but he'll allow some of our forwards to get to their games as well."
Fletchers take on DeAngelo has surely been true and proved just two games into the season, in his first game DeAngelo tallied up two assists finishing the game with one powerplay point and a +2 rating, his second game DeAngelo got another powerplay point, this time it was his first goal in a Flyers uniform, check it out below.
