lol Jesse Boulerice at the Alumni tournament.

The guy spent over 3x as many games suspended as he actually played for the Flyers.

And that was on two different stints with the club.

I agree, Carcillo answered a challenge and won the fight. In my opinion, it had zero to do with why the Flyers lost.

Only a complete moron would agree to a fight in that situation. The Flyers had nothing to gain.

Also, Matt Pfeffer walked back his Weber comments on Twitter.

Deeply regret recent negative comments made to THN regarding Weber and Canadiens. They do not represent my true feelings on player or club.

If true that seems like Ottawa just made a terrible deal.

Didn't he just put up 21 and 30 and starting to come into his own for Ottawa?

Brassard is 5 years and 7 months older, and will be a UFA in three years.

My favorite part is the random 7th rounder Ottawa wanted to make it fair. "You want us to trade a just starting his prime Mika and a 2nd for a 29 year old Brassard?" "We will throw in a 7th." "Done."

Is it me or has there seemed to be more bad deals this offseason then good ones? I feel like there are more one sided deals this offseason and terrible contracts given out this year.

I'm sure Ottawa wanted a center, but would you guys have done Schenn for Zib straight up?

There have been some doozies this year.

And not even ones where one team desperately needed cap space (like the Teravainen deal). Just blatantly poor trades.

Dude, they need to put an nhl17 style ai up in Canada that prevents them from making trades with the USA.
