Ian Laperriere, one of the most popular players on the Colorado Avalanche, is leaving Colorado.
Laperrière, a free agent, signed a 3-year deal with the Philadelphia Flyers worth $3.5 million.
The Avs had offered the forward a 1-year contract that he turned down.
Laperriere had seven goals, 12 assists and 163 penalty minutes last season with the Avalanche, his third with Colorado. He has also played for St. Louis, the New York Rangers and Los Angeles in a 15-season NHL career.
