ugh, just tuned in after a long work day. I was hoping against hope to see a better score at this point. How are the Flyers playing?
- FlyerGuy

Played a good 1st period, deserved better but found themselves down 2-1 after 20 thanks to some unlucky goals against and Vinny got robbed of a goal by the backup.

2nd period was more like we expected, Ducks woke up and hemmed the Flyers in their own zone.

no this is the cost and years if they buy him out this summer

the longer he stays the less the buyout hurts

Its borderline Hal Gill at this point. Bring up Alt, if you don't want to have another defensive guy in there being Lauridsen.

So not going to happen... like every other long-in-the-tooth dman that's gone through here, he'll probably mercifully end up on LTIR for the last couple of years.

See, we can get BS bounces as well....

And Streit is garbage. Let's cap-strap our team for 5 years and buy him out.

Would you rather have him at 5.25 million for the remainder of his contract, or buy him out and take the hit as outlined by Marc.

Giving his minutes to a younger kid who has room to improve.

he has his faults but he has a rocket shot from the point and can be asset if put in the right situation. if they change up the mix next year he could be a valuable weapon to have.

I dont see the gripe people have with Streit. The guy is just as good as Carle ever was here. Hes better offensively and not quite as good in his own zone, but not awful.

So Vinny, Streit, with the big plays this evening.

Holmgren can put his Viagra Pez down for tonight.
