Alright here are some magic numbers that I'm gonna track for the remainder of the season:

18 - We cannot lose any more than 18 points for the remainder of the season in order to have a 50% chance or more of making the playoffs. That equates to a record of 23-7-4 over the remainder of the season.

30 - We cannot earn anymore than 30 points over the remainder of the season in order to have a 50% chance or greater of getting a top 5 pick. That equates to a record of 13-17-4

A mediocre guy that can't handle primary and secondary opposition relegated to his rightful third-pair, sheltered role... funny, I do agree that is the best situation for him.

3rd pair defenseman averaging 20:14 of ice time per game. Right! ES ice time for MacDonald is top 3 on the team, pretty much equal to Del Zotto, all played against weak competition.

Horrid. At least he's won at every level he's played. What else is there, now?
- tangent_man

well, he won it all in typical order, I guess now he's going to do it again in reverse order

Would anyone on here consider Richards if we were to deal Andrew MacDonald in the deal? Or if it was Coburn, but LA ate some $ on the Richards deal to even cap hit out ?
Truth is the Flyers don't need centers but a few guys around that have won at every level might be nice.....besides I still have the old Richards jersey around.

@RandyJMiller: Scott Laughton not progressing well from his concussion. Looks like #Flyers rookie will be out awhile.

does this surprise you at all? and there wasn't even contact with this (frank)ing face either, which makes this is even more annoying.

Flyers have no cap room for Richards, Hexy says..


- aflyerpower8


Hextall must start reading the HockeyBuzz Flyers thread. He's mistaken. The Cap situation is overblown.

Another player who was a constant "what have you done for me lately" kind of guy with the fan base.

While his contributions were never given proper praise, if they were praised at all.

First won't happen. NFW
And I doubt they'll get more than 30 points the rest of the way.

So Hextall said he was going to claim Richards, but the cap space prevented him from doing it?
