You are contradicting yourself in one post. I can understand what you are saying. But at the time, we needed somone like alberts on the blueline. A fourth round pick wasn't the worst deal in the world for what he brought to the team.
Modry on the other hand was one of homers "projects". He thought he could turn him around back into all star form. Didn't work out, and the flyers got blasted everytime he took to the ice.
