Flyers honoring Simon Gagne, one of franchise's best wingers

Retired left winger Simon Gagne, who spent most of his outstanding career with the Flyers, will be honored in ceremonies before Tuesday's game against visiting Los Angeles.

"It’s going to be fun to go back to where everything started, where my son was born, and we’re really excited," said Gagner, who kidded his new job was as a bus driver for his three children. "We’re going to stick around more than just one night. We’re going to stay there for the week and just have some really good memories that happened there when I was in Philly for more than 10 years.
