look i've dealt with a lot of personalities in my travels, I know the game you're trying to suck me into here but guess what, you got coming to what you got coming to you, so when one day you log on and a message in so many words tells you you're perma-band, don't say I didn't tell you so. Quite frankly, I've tried talking sense into you but you're at the stage in life where you think you know everything to that I say good luck because take it from me, learning the hardway, is just that, hard. Have fun, and cheers!

I agree with 2real. Everyone takes themselves 2 serious. I've got a ninja calling me madam lecturing me on maturity. As if my real name is Daman. Worse, I have followers throwing similar insults and again lecturing. I think the problem is everyone is 2 serious. If I propose a trade that will put the team 13 cents over the cap, I will have someone who read the CBA 22 times saying no way.

The coc enforecement... I am not getting baited either.

Rusty Fedotenko is another good example of a guy the Flyers signed as a free agent that had a solid NHL career

u didn't but you said how there are stupid laws, so suppose someone thinks the laws on assault are stupid, what makes you any better for breaking laws that you think are stupid?

that's something you have to let the free market decide not a bunch of wimpy liberals

i love the right to bear arms i wish people wouldn't try to restrict them cause those idiots like the guy in colorado would have a harder time planning poop if they knew the public was armed to protect themselves

he doesn't bring anywhere near enough that trading a similar player in goal production and a regular top four defensman would be feasible.
- JoeRussomanno

well then i believe that issue is solved

Bill, where are the Flyers at currently with contracts? What number/amount do they have room left for to sign a player or 2 if they have to or to use in a trade deadline deal? I remember come trade deadline last year the biggest worry was we had no room to just ADD a contract because we would have to move a few players out. Think its a good idea with the uncertainty of the new CBA and how this team will play this season to just leave a few slots open to upgrade at the deadline if necessary instead of subtracting if you dont have to?

I'm not bill but he touched on this not too long ago, and if memory serves me well, I'm pretty sure the Flyers have room for two more contracts and can slide a couple guys like Cousins to juniors if they have to. Hope that helps.

Cousins, Mathers, & Laughton can all slide. They can even slide Nobels into an overage year in juniors to make room for another contract.

how many of them would you say could contribute if the Flyers find themselves in a pinch? I'm thinking Laughton but not sure about the rest.

Yes it is.

And it is interesting because of the content is provided by users. Some extremely intelligent.

I would assume that the advertising and therefore some of the revenues are based on the very same users.

At least I find it interesting.

what does that have to do with limiting personal and passive aggressive attacks on other posters?

All I discussed was the business model.

It wasn't meant to appease the masses.

Cousins is said by some local reporters to have as a legit shot if not more of one than Laughton.

If they earn it fine if not I send them right back to juniors.
