Barf city at that 4th line makes me actually miss one of those bums like Kostopolous. Excuse me, "Cantstopolous"

Realized he was going to make more money shoveling poop then playing hockey.

D'Agostini, Sullivan and Kostopolous... its funny to think about last season.

By the time we got a hold of Butler he was ruined from being up and down. Lou wanted that kid right out of college but he signed with the Sens. He was at least a cheaper version of Brunner.

You guys need to stop worrying so much about Clowe. As long as he's not playing its like he doesn't exist

I just don't think he was ever that good. He got on a hot streak on a poor team and then started playing like the fringe NHLer that he is.

I hate how the Flyers always pluck guys like Leino, Read, Gustafsson from obscurity and turn out to have free NHL players. I suppose we had Greene and Clarkson in recent years, but every time I see a really good undrafted player it frustrates me that we could've had them instead of any of our 7th round, throwaway picks.

What's worse?:

A. Sorting through other teams' trash bin to find 3rd liners in hopes of them making an impact on your team's season.

B. Finding misfit 2nd liners with talent, overpaying them, and then they don't show up.

The first is an exercise in insanity, and the second is a combination of talent mishandling, bad timing, and inefficient forecasting.

Leino started in Detroit.

No but same could be said for Brunner he got a hot streak in the playoff and had an ok season on a pretty talented and well composed team. In reality he is a fringe NHL just like the rest of the guys who come from league's that get touted as the best player not playing in the NHL like that Brunnstrom guy and I know there was one other and Gustovsson was supposed to come in and be the best goalie the league had seen since Lundqvist. There is a reason these guys spent a good chunk of their career playing over seas lol not that the Monster can't be a decent back up but he never lived up to the hype at all.

No, it's not you. We could really use that powerplay leadership.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if Marty has to be pulled because he's depressed.
