I don't disagree with you there. I wish the flyers did a full rebuild after the carter Richards trade instead of this half assed effort and handing money and time to over the hill vets

The Sabres also signed Free Agents such as Ville Leino, traded for players such as Ott and Ehrhoff.

he should have had a hatrick last night

Well the Flyers suck, so getting a hat trick against them isn't really that impressive.

They are at complete rock bottom though. They need help in every area. Their group of forwards is the worst in hockey and now they don't have a goaltender either.

They really have no choice but to rebuild. There aren't enough free agents or trades they can make to get that team to the playoffs next year.

I agree with you. Just tired of seeing the flyers pay a premium for over the hill vets in free agency...man that pronger injury hurts I wonder who they target this year in FA

He has 38 points in 138 games.

He's a 3rd/4th line player

Its the perpetual feeling of being one player away from the Stanley Cup.

If the flyers were to trad Schenn I'd want it to be for jones ... Schenn Schenn coburn and the kitchen sink or read in place of coburn

Wishe we were one player... I look at other teams and am envious.... (frank) I'm envious of the sabers now....it will be great for the boys to get into the playoffs and anything can happen but it's such a long shot to win a cup.. So many great teams in the west

Ask Canucks fans if they see a future for Kassian. JVR was much more productive by 23 and flashed high end skill. His biggest problem was inconsistency and staying healthy.

Picks and Prospects aren't guarantees. Sabers are still a ways away from contending. They need help at every position.

Edit: Just look at their forwards. Not one of their forwards would play on the Flyers top 6. Maybe not even the top 9.

What does that have to do with anything? We're talking about Kassian.

To a degree but their cupboards will be stocked for years to come with some pretty high end talent which they could use to procure those players... I feel like the flyers cup boards are barren. They can't plug up one hole without creating a new one

Off the top of your head. What do you think the percentage is of female commercial drivers in the US?
