Hall and Gervais to the AHL, Bourdon to non roster injured reserve(had no idea it existed until today) to get under the cap. Pronger on LTIR.

Current roster:

12 Forwards: Hartnell, Schenn, Talbot, Rosehill, Giroux, Lecavalier, Couturier, Laughton, Voracek, Simmonds, Read & Rinaldo

7 Defensemen: Timonen, Coburn, Streit, Schenn, Grossmann, Gustafsson, Meszaros

2 Goalies: Emery and Mason

Expect tomorrow that they will recall Hall and sign Hal Gill to a 1 year deal, with Pronger's LTIR exemption

I thought it was important not to use the pronger LTIR until after the first roster?

It would have been nice if they could have swung a Meszaros trade, but even if they had, it would have been for a 3rd/4th liner any how.

The key was being under at 5 PM tonight. As soon as they managed that, they could LTIR Pronger and get the full amount of his cap hit as LTIR exemption.

Doesn't look like a bad roster to me.
I think they make the playoffs and make some noise if tbey play like they did the last month of the season. If not new coach time.

Not picking on you, but I'm laying my Internet $ down on another season missing the playoffs. And I don't think it will come down to a shootout. Hope I'm dead wrong.

Peter Forsberg smiles and waves, while Vinny talks to Chris Pronger. Shea Weber, from afar, is seen salivating at the thought of playing for the Flyers.

actually DET, 1 yr after losing lidstrom, is already on track w/ their prospects on D. kronwall was already in place and guys like dekeyser were key signees. their D is better than ours now and will be at least until morin, hagg, et al are ready to take bigger roles.

NJ seems like they're banking big time on larsson, who may need another season to hit his stride. if he does, he'll be better than any young guy we have for a couple of yrs.

I wasn't talking about prospects. I was talking about replacing a franchise player like Lidstrom, same as the Flyers were faced with replacing a franchise player in Pronger. Actually none of the prospects in Detroit are on track to become the next Lidstrom.
A lot of people are underestimating the Flyers defense,

The Flyers did the same thing with Bourdon last Season and kept him there all year. Don't really know all the details about it.

Ok. I thought someone was saying he'd been LTIRd to get under BEFORE the opening roster.
