I can't wait for Cou2rier to get off to a slow start and his "muscle" will be adjudged to be fat and the fat talk will commence.

B Schenn is already the new tubby.

Gagne, if he's even on the team, should be on the PP only if there is an injury to multiple players.

Wait what!?! He was lean and mean starting last season. When he came over the season before he was a touch tubby. I used to call him chubby but was forced to stop last season...

It's gotta be Jake "Home Cooking" Voracek until proven otherwise.

And who knows? Maybe Jake plays good fat.

One of the Flyers assistant coaches got all over Hartnell's case last season about getting out of shape during the lockout. That's probably why Hartnell was joking about himself and Voracek being in the "Fat Club."

Giroux, Lecavalier, Hartnell, Voracek, Timonen

B.Schenn, Simmonds, Read, Streit, ...

The last possible options would be Couturier, Gustafsson and maybe Gagne if we sign him. I love Gagne and truly believe he'll surprise us but he is on the decline, while Couturier and Gustafsson are on the up and up.

I'd think you'd have to do Gustafsson and, if he's on the roster, Meszaros.

I live in Buffalo, and Sabres' games are blacked out on gamecenter until 48 hours after game ends. What it SHOULD be is you select your favorite team, and you SHOULD be able to watch every single game, home feed, in HD. But all NBC, NBCS, and NHLN games are blacked out too.

I don't even want Meszaros back. I just want the obvious to play out.

It's far more likely he stays on the roster.

Best case scenario - he plays amazingly well and finds his role re-established in the top 6.
Next best scenario - we keep him and then trade him for a ludicrous amount at the trade deadline.
Next next best Scenario - we trade him right as the season starts for a decent return
Last scenario - he ends his current contract at the end of this year on IR.

I also think he has made piss poor decisions in developing the kids...Hes the kind of coach that needs a veteran team. That of course is just my opinion.
- PhillaBully


Giroux seems to be developing ok.
