carle's better defensively, no question. streit does a couple things well, but fairly one dimensional. def a better shooter than carle, though.

I agree 100%. Streit has to be used properly. Maybe they screwed up letting Carle go, but given what's out there and the cost I have no problem with Homer picking up a piece they needed without coughing up any of the young Core.

In thinking abot it a bit, I think this is the perfect opportunity to make up for the Bryzaster contract by doing what they should have...signing a veteran stop gap goalie to a 2-4 year contract...gives time to see if Mason is legit and guys like Stolarz, Heeter to mature and develop. So, yeah, I'd be looking at:

Luongo - only if bought out, would go as high as 4yrs & $4m/per
Backstrom - 4yrs (prefer 2-3) /$4m max
Thomas - 2 yrs max (prefer 1 yr option), $4m max
Emery - 3 yrs (pref 2), $2mil max

Agreed. Money is not a problem for Comcast Snidercore. Keep the kids we have and let them build a dynasty. (too ambitious?)

We're about to add a big piece on Sunday and I am so f'n ready!

Maybe for the other teams in the NHL. Flyers don't operate that way.

i believe its sort of like the mentality when you just accept something that you know annoys the hell out of you, but you just shrug it off anyway. sort of like a 5 million dollar goaltender who doesnt have the self confidence to piss straight anymore in the poststeason.

at least your situation is a little less cloudy than yesterday, simply via subtraction. and cap savings to boot!

haha our starter doesnt get a buyout, he gets a pat on the back and told to try again next year. i may be just a tad bitter

I still haven't gotten over that whole playoffs run. It was so amazing, and it still hurts.

It's a shame so many of those players are gone. Not a complaint.
