Scott Hartnell says, “Thank You Philly!”

Scott Hartnell was traded to the Blue Jackets on Monday for R.J. Umberger. Ron Hextall seems to be clearing house in the front office.

Hextall had asked Hartnell’s agent Dean Grillo to waive his no-movement clause with the thought that Philadelphia didn’t want him any longer.

Despite leaving from Philadelphia on bad terms though, Scott Hartnell is a true Flyer for life in my mind. He will always have a love for Philadelphia even if he got a kick in the backside towards the end.

Here is what he tweeted yesterday:

To all the @NHLFlyers fans that have supported me through my seven seasons in Philadelphia, Thank You… http://t.co/nDACaOFBMz—Scott Hartnell (@Hartsy19) June 24, 2014
