Would Mrazek be here in time to start tomorrow or go with Lyon? Since Mtl sucks I assume they will let Lyon start, but geez you sure don’t want to just assume points in this league!

i can live with a 3rd/4th in 2 separate draft years. had to get a goalie. his waiting cost him probably 1 pick. it is what it is. not a 2nd, not a 1st, and not any prospects. fine.

What do you think. One condition being how far they get in the playoffs and another if he resigns (or traded maybe). I'd bet there's a good chance it doesn't end up 4/3

i think this is a good deal for the flyers considering the circumstances as they are.

BGMRH needs to make a deal for a goalie or else he should just resign.

BGMRH gave up too much for a goalie, he should just resign.

I hope it works well. There's a pretty big Czech group here and obviously he is cool with Neuvirth

That was probably why the extra pick came in to play. Thats a 2 mill savings.

yeah thats a good point as well.

i think its a pretty good deal even if it ends up a 3 and 4 and it probably wont even end up costing that much.

mrazek isnt a stud but he isnt trash by any means, and honestly it isnt hyperbole to think that the move could literally be the difference between a playoff slot or not.

I wonder if Hexy has another deal in the works to recoup that pick(s)?

I'd be flying mrazek in asap. Any team can still burn you and we need the points. Paid for him so let's roll. I've liked mrazeks game. Should be good with a better team.

I wonder who ends up the starter here. I'm worried that Elliott might take a long time to recover and get his game back.

Would that suggest we are going to try make another trade? Why else would we need to save cap space for a RFA?

Something has to give with OL being recalled.
Maybe a forward injury we dont know about?

Mrazek woooooooo.

I imagine the conditional 3rd next year is if we extend him. And the 4th May be number of games he plays for us this year.

Yea, I guess.

Like my appearances here on this board, my mind tends to wander in and out. but I do remember when you went to play the games.

It was truly one hellava accomplishment.
