I remember the uproar when Tibbetts was acquired. My fiance at the time, who was a huge Flyers fan, had been a victim of abuse, and she lost her mind when they picked him up.

He was convicted of statutory rape of a 15 year old when he was 17. And then spent 39 months in prison 3 years later for witness intimidation and assault and battery.

A real prize winner this one was.

Yup, as I already said, a complete and total scumbag.

So, Morin + Read + B. Schenn + 1st + 2nd for Shea Weber?

Kyle Calder was actually a name that could allegedly play the game a little bit. There were actually expectations for Calder when he got here, which he fell woefully short of.

Chicago had to use him as a 1st-line scoring option back in the day... along w/ Mark Bell and Tyler Arnason. Man, have they come a long way since.

haha, Mark Bell. Didn't the Flyers have some guy named Bell in the mid to late 00's? I think someone made a joke about putting him on a line with David Laliberte and having La Liberty Bell line.

FTFY

Please, we need 07/08 Randy Jones, with his Satan-induced running of Patrice Bergeron. All hail Earth Overlord Jones.

I think Mark Bell was the apple of Clarkie's eye once upon a time, but he ended up in Toronto instead.

Same guy. He was on a try out deal with Flyers & never signed full deal

Ah okay, so we were in a bidding war for him...astounding.

Yeah, it was a fight like 2 seconds into a game.

Edit: Yep. Here ya go, a fight against Westgarth (can't see the seizures):


- jmatchett383

I didnt see the seizures... It didnt happen

Ah okay, so we were in a bidding war for him...astounding.

Bell + Rathje + Hatcher + Turner Stevenson = Stanley Cup

Bell played with maximum truculence. Plus he was a big forward.

In other words, Clarke likely tried to have this guy legally adopted.

Bell + Rathje + Hatcher + Turner Stevenson = Stanley Cup

Can you imagine what the doctor bills for Rathje, Hatcher, and Stevenson were like?

So, Morin + Read + B. Schenn + 1st + 2nd for Shea Weber?

Please tell me you actually wouldn't do that and are merely continuing the satire.

I would do it. I dont care about Schenn, Read is Read, Morin is unproven. You have to give to get. Weber is a stud.

You're right, that wouldn't work.

I'd also throw in Ed Snider's 4th trophy wife, Bernie Parent's boat, and an 11-pack of Amstel Light personally autographed by Steve Coates.

/It's an 11 pack because Coatsey gets thirsty signing autographs

Yowza.

You also have to give to suck in 3 seasons, like the Phillies.

So, I vote not compromising the future (in picks and young players) for one guy.

I see your point. Weber will be around at least another decade though. Read and Schenn can be replaced rather easily IMO

You know the minute he pulls on that Flyers sweater, his chances of experiencing a career-debilitating concussion/knee/hip/groin/back/foot issue goes up exponentially, right?

Imagine a roster where Pronger and Weber are both on LTIR.

Agreed, that Jim McCrossin would ruin Weber's career here.
