flyers are allowed to go 6.45M over the cap arent they?
if so they dont need to make a trade technically
if they have to be under the cap by July 5th then yes they'll have to make a trade

No sir, I did not. I don't believe Homer wears any.

as Darren Dreger just reported it's 5 years, $22.5 - not $23.5 million. $4.5 mill cap hit which is still high and leaves Flyers w/cap issues

I thought he ruled out Detroit

According to "reports"...

The fact of the matters nobody actually really knows what he's thinking except his agent and maybe family members.

it actually includes a no interview clause as well.

If we had one of those in Bryzgalov's contract, he'd still be a Flyer today.

I'm in the middle here. He makes the Flyers better, but at what price? What else is going to happen here.

Somehow I think Schenn gets third line center. Couts is gone

5 years $22.5M for Vinny Lecavalier to join #Flyers. He gives them much-needed size up middle.
