Daniel Brière and Co. decided to shake up the mix and move on from two young players who not too long ago were viewed as key parts of the organization's rebuild.

Well, Thursday night’s big swap with Calgary, which brought 28-year-old forward wing Andrei Kuzmenko to Philadelphia in exchange for forwards Morgan Frost and Joel Farabee (both in their mid-20s), just might be a change in that thinking.

The Flyers freed up a bit of cap space with the clear out of Farabee's contract, and they might be setting up for more.
