If they can scratch out a win today at MSG, I'm ready to start thinking I need to save money for playoff tickets.

I gripe about certain things hak does but don't get it twisted. It's fun to be in the playoff race again

You could probably say that for the flyers too just saying

Not really, pretty sure the Rags would happily swap any of the 6 they are dressing today for Provorov or Ghost.

Hextall can make a move a little closer to the deadline and the asking price will come down. There aren't a lot of teams shopping for goalie rentals and there are quite a few guys available.

Just gotta hope Neuvirth doesn't get banged up between now and then. Otherwise Hextall is not going to have much leverage in a trade.

Was thinking that too. If the Red Wings are the ones desperate enough closer to the deadline and that price drops to a 4th...that'd be a steal imo

What about the other 4 lol

Besides I was talking about the flyers playing most other teams. Lightheartedly of course, the D corps has a great chance to be nasty in a few years' time

That too but I'm not sure if he is capable of that right now.

I say the flyers leave Ny with 2pts and Hank.

Your ability to dectect sarcasm is sadly deficient. Also, your trolling skills leave much to be desired, I can see why most posters in the Rangers thread look upon you with scorn.

You mean in a trade or straight up leaving him in NY?

Weise, Lehtera and Neuvirth for Hank sounds good to me

looking at that Rangers D-core, you would think 2 points are right there for the taking.

Let's hope so. Embarass them.

I'll accept it.

Actually, a tomato would be an upgrade over Weise. At lease a tomato can be eaten in many various forms and ways. OTOH, Weise just sucks at hockey.

It’s a real shame Stolarz is hurt. Would have been a great opportunity for him.

Yours is pretty good too. You were in here claiming the rangers were contenders earlier in the year. Hilarious.

Really i would love for it to happen for a few reasons.First off the rags would have to retain some salary.I think getting Hank helps them in goal but also with d men.I think hanks experience will help them during games because of communication with the d.I think with hank it gives hart time and also a mentor when he comes up.Also with hart you dont know if your getting murray (instant success)price (took a few years to finally get it)or mason (who never really lived up to the hype).

You guys see what a small section of idiot fans in Chicago did last night? With the basketball chant.

I would like to think if anyone was dumb enough to direct something like that at WayneTrain that the rest of the Flyers fans would tell them to shut up.

Anyone know what Stolarz’s status is? I thought he had meniscus surgery. Hasn’t it been like 5 months? What’s the recovery time on that surgery? Is he back on the ice? I had my meniscus trimmed. Recovery was pretty quick. I guess a meniscus repair takes longer?

Prob been discussed but i see isaac said that det was looking for a 3rd for mrazek and he wouldn't do it.

Not really a surprise to me. We've been winning for the most part, and even if we weren't, it'd be a log jam in goal once elliott came back.

Sure that is correct but it is a third round draft pick and people are saying no thanks. Really you are worried about giving up a third round draft pick for a decent goalie to assist with Elliott out? What is the percentage that the third round pick will even play in the system?

To some on here they hit on Ghost once so 3rds are as valuable as 1st's.
