Got Sbisa and MAB with the picks from that deal. Which may make it one of the better trades in recent history, being as they're probably 2 of the top-5 defensemen the Flyers have drafted since the 04/05 lockout.

I think the Vinny retire thing could happen.

If he doesn't see the ice between now and, say, Christmas.....he basically just retires or waives his NMC, right?

If they can move out from under Umberger and Vinny, they'll be in a much nicer position financially all the sudden.

I really don't think his NMC will be the biggest hurdle. It's getting someone to take him that's the real issue.

Very true.

But what is to stop Hextall and Berube from simply deep sixing Vinny in the Cote suite until a center gets injured?

If they win the next 3 out of 4 (kinda plausible, actually), is it possible that Vinny does not see the ice, at all, while everyone is healthy?

Can players drink in the Cote suite?

Lecavalier has the best job ever

If they win two in a row Lacavalier gets right back in there to stem the tide.

Book it.

Thread killer

Another Flyers Draft joke on MvW yesterday.

In Bettman's voice: "I've decided that teams with the colour orange will get priority in the draft lottery. It also helps if your owners name is Ed. Do you have an Ed? No? Sorry."

Got Sbisa and MAB with the picks from that deal. Which may make it one of the better trades in recent history, being as they're probably 2 of the top-5 defensemen the Flyers have drafted since the 04/05 lockout.

such a shame for MAB.
