I don't think we are worse off than last season. Pretty comparable. Hard to say who will get Hartnell's spot on the top line. But whoever it is should have a good year.

Only decent would have been Ehrhoff. Everyone else kind of got the classic UFA overpayment.

Like what the Stars have done today.

Upgrade their team where possible.....alas there poor cap management makes it next to impossible.....hopefully Hextall does a better job then Holmgren...which shouldn't be hard.

This one is the closest analog to AMac. Got 20% less on the open market.

The Flyers could've easily signed Ehrhoff to the same deal. They have the space for it. But it's not a fit for Ehrhoff.

Cool your poop baby. Its only a playful jab.

Nobody is burning a Flyers jersey. You will have your chance to defend Holmgren's legacy as the season rolls along. That fool left them with little flexibility that will take a while to clear up. How he still has a job with the team is kind of laughable.

adding youth to lineup while setting yourself up for the future could be the way to improve and not be cap strapped every single year.

Hartnell is a better hockey player then Umberger....I understand why it happened, but those are the facts...

Holmgren spending like a drunken sailor on drek has forced Hextall to show some restraint.

He has 6 million, glad he's not wasting it.
