A bright spot in the midst of such an emotionally-charged trade is that Pelletier is not making this transition alone. Fellow trade acquisition Andrei Kuzmenko came to Philly in the same deal, and having a familiar face has helped both players settle in.

The Calgary Flames scored four times in the first period, including two goals from Connor Zary, on their way to a 6-3 road victory over the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday.

Just over a month since combining on a notable trade, the Calgary Flames and host Philadelphia Flyers square off Tuesday. Philadelphia is 4-0-1 in its last five games as the team has begun to integrate Andrei Kuzmenko and Jakob Pelletier into its lineup.
