Good, he was entertaining as hell when he was up. The Flyers will need every possible muscle while playing the Isles, Rags and Devils

a guy getting 3 fights in a game iscool in my book. now lets hope he looks a little better dropping the gloves. glad he got signed. he is a mean guy they need.

One way deal? If it was posted I didn't see it?
Good signing,I like Sestito's energy and grit he brings.
He might not be the best fighter but it's better then nothing I guess.

I don't know what took so long since it seemed Lavi liked him. If Rinaldo and Sestito play it could be a good year to watch the Flyers because they both start a lot of shXt and they both scrap. Then you throw in Simmonds every night and Shelley for division games.

Hopefully they dress Shelley especially against Atlantic division games. Sestito is willing but isn't the greatest fighter especially against HWs.

Seems like more team's are looking to add a little toughness or make sure they keep their toughness this year...sadly I don't know if we have enough coaches that will play said toughness.

But the east is definatley going to be fun to watch. Glad the Flyers are keeping Sestito around. In his time up he made an impact and didn't just do the "safe" thing (aka skate and not hit) to try and stay up. He stuck to his game and what he does as a player and it earned him respect with the org.

Good signing by the flyers. Sestito is a good fit for them and will make the games a lot more fun to watch.

This Signing keeps the Flyers up with the Big boys as far as toughness.
Shelley, Sestito, Rinaldo, Simmonds, Bourdon(Concussion) Manning. Throw in Walker, and we should be able to defend ourselves within the division.

Sestito is very willing, but he can only be willing if he stays out of the press box. I think we need to stop adding Walker to that list.

good signing, but i dont think we'll ever see him and shelley play at the same time. in fact this might be shelley's ticket out of town. sestito isnt a great fighter by any means. he's actually kinda awkward, but he's constantly willing, throws his weight around alot and can skate well.
