CHRISTIAN KYROU FOR SAMU TUOMAALA

The Philadelphia Flyers acquired defenseman Christian Kyrou from the Dallas Stars for winger Samu Tuomaala.

What does it give the Philadelphia Flyers
This is a classic trade of two struggling prospects in need of a change of scenery. Kyrou is a puck-moving defenseman with a lack of size. He will stay in the AHL for the foreseeable future.

What does it give the Dallas Stars
In Tuomaala, the Stars get a Finnish winger who will get a fresh start in their organization. Dallas has been a good place for Finnish hockey players, so this move may be good for him.
