you got to admit, he was completely misused in buffalo that final season.

Sure was. But good players make the most out of certain situations, too.

Not just Ruff's fault.

i agree. it was a numbers game and brad boyes was the odd man out. it doesnt help that he wasnt making his chances count but thats the breaks.

Geoff Sanderson was in a similar situation when he was here, too.

What line is he on with the Islanders? didnt they give him top 6 minutes?

Yea. He's getting Drew Stafford minutes from the first half of this season.

Maybe we should have kept Boyes, and waived Stafford.

Although, I think I remember Boyes not being a happy teammate when he was here.

So every fan base has its idiots. Some "Flyers fan" (i use that term loosely) called a "sports radio show" (WIP, I also use the term loosely here as well) to say he has a "friend" who has "inside information" on a very interesting option for the Flyers.

Lotsa "" in there... so hopefully you understand that I am not the guy suggesting this.. HOWEVER, I wanna hear what you guys think...

Yikes.

If they were making up Rumors, they could have at least come up with something even remotely believable.

The worst part about it is that the radio guys laughed at it.. and he followed it up with (again) "logic".

Miller wants out and Vanek said he isnt returning after the season.

If we get rid of Vanek I would be really upset. He is one of the premier goal scorers in this league and it has been a pleasure to watch him play.


With his next contract, you have to think about when he might retire. You still get penalized when a guy retires with years on his contract cap wise, so I don't think he will get anything more than a 5 year deal. 5 years 35 million dollars is fair.

where does this person think the flyers have room for miller and vaneks contract. they'd be taking on a TON of salary if they did this.

Read is a solid player, but seems to be a 2nd liner at best IMO. The first rounder would be nice but trading away our top 2 players for a maybe 2nd liner, overpaid goalie and a first doesnt make much sense.

I think Brian Flynn looks pretty good, Porter is also a nice call up...I go to all the Amerks games and I can tell you the team is very slow and the only guy I have hope in is McNabb. Pysyk is terrible and a waste of a first rd pick. Buffalo should look to move Vanek or Poms for some up and coming players. Hodgson was a good move, we need more like that move.

Any specifics on why Pysyk is terrible? I haven't been to any of the games but have heard he was pretty steady, nothing flashy which is fine by me. 17 pts and a +11 this season doesn't seem too bad to me?????

I know I can't be the only person that thinks after Leopold and/or Regehr get moved that our D needs to look like....

Ehrhoff - Sekera
Myers - McNabb (played together at prep)
Weber - Pardy
Brennan

Right?

With a first rd pick its nice to draft skill or an amazing shut down player. Pysyk is not pyshical at all and he has trouble with the larger forwards. I just see him as a Chris Butler clone. Cant score, doesn't hit and is just Mr average. Waste of a first rd pick. In a few years her might advance as Defensemen take longer.
