He's coming here with the intention of winning the starting job. No doubt about it. I like having that kind of competition in net.

Its too positive in here.

Mason goes back to being the headcase he was in Columbus, and Emery's hip blows apart in the shootout.

Why do you care what the Flyers do? The weren't a playoff team, no worries.
- stveshdy


Why do you guys get so defensive? Im just stating the obvious. Trying to have a conversation here. You guys just assume that because Im with another team Im just here to troll.

The signing of VL4 put you guys right at the cap.

And what are you guys going to do next year? Giroux just got a 5 mil raise... with Couturier and Schenn both RFAs. You guys are TIGHT on what you can do.

- aecliptic

Holy (frank)... Do me a favor. And this goes for every other teams fans that come in here. Do some research because you are embarrassing yourself. We aren't going to get into this again. Go worry about your team which revolted to get a coach fired.

Here we go again.
- xpsana

people need to stop thinking that being up against the cap means that you are going to lose your entire core. yeah, you wont be in on huge FA deals, and maybe a role guy goes here and there. but the sky is not falling and the core of both the pens and flyers are going to be in their respective colors for a long time. these GMs arent stupid. they identify their main core of guys, lock them up, then fill around them

Car with Komi and Im getting nervous that Mez is going to be hard to move... even for nothing. When he gets healthy can we waive him?
- coffee junkie

In theory yes, although only 900K comes off the cap hit...
Plus he'd prolly be picked up off waivers.

Never accused you of trolling. Just don't get why you care what the Flyers do. They didn't make the playoffs last year. The Rangers are better lately. Will see what happens.

Lundqvist is fantastic. And the Rangers D core is solid. A fresh voice will help. I would think the team started to tune Tortorella out.

My only worry is that Emery plays better than Mason and Mason regresses mentally like he did in Columbus when Bob outplayed him.

Even people freaking out about the Pens cap need to shut up. So much can happen at the drop of a hat.
