I now believe Neuvirth has played his last game in a Flyers jersey.

He'll probably replace Lyon on the bench as soon as he's available.

Extra pick for cap space that's not needed? Something else happening or am I missing something?

wings fanbase seems kinda divided on him. Some think this is a steal for Philly and others are happy he's gone.
- Nucker101

He is slightly worse than Neuvirth and slightly more consistent. A lot less injury prone

Capfriendly doesn't have anything for Lindblom and it's making me sad
- YuenglingJagr

I'm as excited to see him as Mrazek.

although i still think chad johnson would have been the better pickup. maybe we still go snag him. wouild be happy with pickard too. lyon looked good yesterday but terrible the other ganes so maybe a second goalie woukd be prudent

I want Lindblom on that 2nd line. Would be (frank)ing perfect. Jake back to RW. Let’s roll

He's the red wings Steve mason

Gave up a 4th and a 3rd when they could've just resigned Mason. Pathetic

In hextall I trust. If he deems it prudent to send picks, there's a reason.
- Hextall271

I'm actually shocked he made the deal. He needed to do something, I figured he would do a lesser move. Not upset Neuvirth is probably done as a Flyer at the end of the year.

A random 80 year old lady meets that last requirement.

Lehner got injured which I imagine effectively took both him and Johnson out of play. Buffalo has to ice someone in net.

I agree. Seems like a perfect fit and will strengthen the bottom 6.

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.

I just hope their thread has an MJL so we can get to the bottom of who’s right

If Mrazek plays well down the stretch (and hopefully into the PO's), perhaps they try to move Elliott, who would probably be easier to move, and keep Neuvy as a backup.

Just wondering.

Think I read Lehner is hurt.
Also CJ is what, 6 years older than Mrazek?
Lets be honest it's not like we are talking Vasilevsky vs Bob ....
Backup from 1 team vs backup from another team.

Mrazek is a consistent goalie much like Elliot. Not elite but solid. Neuvy can be better than Elliot and mrazek when he's on but worse than Ray emery's last season when he's off. Eagles traded for reported locker room problem Ajayi and he was awesome. All depends how he does here.

he's got nothing to do but play his ass off and shut up if he wants another contract, whether it's here or elsewhere. i think he'll be fine in the room. as for the ice, we'll see.
