"I really do see the excitement here," he said. "The PPL Center is the best building in the league by far. The training facility in the building is the best in the league by far. So there's an attraction for veteran players to come, but the support from the people of the Lehigh Valley has been awesome. I think we've sold out all but two games in our two years here. It's just a good place to be. I've put my roots here and bought a house before the season started last year in the west Allentown/Salisbury Township area. So I really love it here and the reception of the fans has been great. A lot of the fans are Flyers fans and they have the same passion as the people in Philly."
