Performance bonuses and the bonus cushion.

They won't get hit by too many bonuses

Is Mrazek starting tonight, or do you think they reward Lyon for his game on Sunday?

But will they get hit by many falling houses?

A 96 on the back of a jersey would look pretty sweet. Of course some idiot would have to joke about you having the numbers backward.
- dragonoffrost

Did you know in Chinese the reverse pronunciation of 96 is two-can-chew.

Like the deal, looking forward to seeing what Mrazek can do. Not concerned a bit with the “attitude” issues, kid was 24 and got a little cocky, stuff happens. From all I’ve been able to find, he’s had no issues re attitude at all this season.

The Flyers landed a 26 year old, very talented goaltender playing for a new deal and out to prove that he can be a top notch #1. In fact, the more I think about the deal, the happier I am with it.

i actually like he was cocky, learn and grow but you know he has that edge that you need is professional sports

Bold prediction: The Flyers go all-in and trade for a scorer and defenseman

Why it could happen: Philadelphia has caught fire lately and moved up to third place in the Metro. As a team with superstar talent up front and two quality young defensemen, the Flyers could be a serious contender with the addition of a scorer like Patrick Maroon, and either Johnny Oduya or Nick Holden on defense. The Flyers' extra first-round draft pick in 2018 gives them an opportunity to shoot high without completely sacrificing the future.

This may have already been posted, but I really wanted to share. Hopefully that extra first can get us Patrick Maroon back

Well I'm just saying, if Giroux's driving to the arena and a house falls on his car and kills him, or turns him into some deformed monster of some sort, we're pretty screwed (unless that deformed monster comes with hockey-related superpowers). Wouldn't you agree?

Yeah I see the same and am guessing 3 years. If Hart seizes the reins in year 2, Mrazek could always be dealt prior to the final year or just kept as a good backup/insurance policy since cap wise, Hart will still be on his ELC.
- BiggE



if he plays well, I think they try and sign him for 2-3 deal, anything longer they pass. Nuevy will get traded at the draft for a Handy Manny builder set. I do think if MRazek plays well, they will try to trade elliot. Then go with Stollie or Lyon, knowing Hart is in the wings. I think we all forgot but losing Stollie at the beginning of the year did hurt. He gave them a few quality starts last year in the show.

I'm calling up Vegas right now and putting my life savings on the Flyers getting Holden from the Rangers.

I expect the Flyers to make the playoffs so I think the condition for a 3rd this year will be met.
- MJL


I agree and a 3rd in this draft is a solid pick up for the wings

No, not worth it for a rental of a guy who seems to be slowly starting to fade.

edit: didn't realize that he had a year left at 4.7 million after this season. Still not willing to move a first for him, especially since both our 1st and the St. Louis pick could end up as mid round 15-20 picks. The way the Flyers have drafted in the first in recent years, makes me pretty unwilling to part with either one.

With Detroit retaining 50%, I wonder if Hexy retains salary in another trade for someone such as Filp, Lehterä or even Neuvy.
- arichardson22



nope you cant retain 100% to make the deal work

He has 1 more year at $4.5M. I agree though, his game has started to slip. It's the only veteran name on that team I's even consider a first for.
