Daily News | Flyers’ Tony DeAngelo says he isn’t who you think he is. And he’s ready to prove it to hometown fans.
“He has played his last game for the Rangers,” then-general manager Jeff Gorton said the following day., allowing them to buy out his contract. The defenseman had played only six games after signing his extension.
DeAngelo promised them they’d get the best version of himself in terms of performance and behavior. He kept that promise. “It means a lot to me as a player, especially with what I’ve been through in my career, for a guy to come out there that I haven’t even touched the ice for yet and support me like that,” DeAngelo said.
The 26-year-old has twice scored double-digit goals and had more than 50 points, including last season. He’s also an elite power-play facilitator, racking up 18 assists last season with the man advantage. Fletcher also believes DeAngelo’s outlet passing will help the Flyers break out of the defensive zone easier, one of the team’s biggest issues last season.
Already, DeAngelo’s coach and teammates have spoken up in support of him. Center Kevin Hayes posted on Instagram after the trade was announced, while winger Cam Atkinson said he’s looking forward to DeAngelo helping the power play. Sanheim added that DeAngelo has brought a taste of Philly to the locker room.
