Vinny Lecavalier was back at his natural position, center, as the Flyers opened training camp before a huge crowd in Voorhees on Friday. R.J. Umberger and Sam Gagner were his wingers.
Call it the Redemption Line.
Lecavalier is coming off a disappointing eight-goal season, and he wasn't happy with the way he was used by former coach Craig Berube. Umberger is trying to rebound from an injury-plagued, nine-goal year, and Gagner, acquired from Arizona in the Nick Grossmann trade, is hoping to be more productive and show he was worthy of being drafted No. 6 overall by Edmonton in 2007.
