It's a shame some fans don't have more respect for a player who is willing to take on challenges from bigger and stronger players and not back down, and is willing to stand up for his teammates.

It's a shame that some fans will go to the literal ends of the #flatearth to defend replacement level players and incessantly belittle those who disagree.

Would you rather Domi or Reinhart if you could?
- J35Bacher

I'd rather keep Morin and Sanheim

Why does thbebest team in the East want Karlsson when they have Hedman?

Crazy doesn't give it justice.
- Pelle31Forever

Because they can afford him and who wouldn't want a top pairing of elite handsome swedes?

So I’m thinking Leier in for TK and play on the 4th line which will bump Lehterä up to top line tonight because We don’t lose any speed with him up there?!
😞😉

Domi.
- Tfaehner

Domi's more skilled, but I still want to see someone crack his face open at some point. That, and the fact that he has the unfortunate circumstance of being his father's son makes me like him even less.

I guess I'd still take him, though,

Speaking of dumb, Manning is a player who has worked his way up from the AHL to the NHL and has been in the NHL for 3 years. That makes him actually good at hockey.

You can have any opinion you want of fighting it still doesn't change that Manning should be respected for how he stands up on the ice.
- MJL

Oh my, you got me. I should have clarified. Good at NHL hockey I forgot you even knew other leagues exist outside the NHL.

I will be surprised if Manning ever plays another NHL game for another team besides the Flyers.

Standing on ice isn't hard. I don't even need skates, and I can do it well.

Has a career path that sounds similar to another recent Flyer...

Summation from 12 months ago: Chris VandeVelde is an absoiutely fine NHL player. He doesn't suck, and there is a reason why he has been on the NHL roster for 3 straight years now.

Domi is a skilled playmaker. He suffers from Arizona pp being close to non existent since his rookie year. If you check out reinhart right around 50% his goals come from buffalo pp for his career. He seems like a lesser version of schenn. Not that schenn isn't a good player but I take domi over him. But over all I would take either if it doesn't cost us one our top d prospects

Panarin and Johnson rumored to be out for Columbus

Exactly. Manning will probably get a PTO from someone next year as well, but he will likely be a September cut just like VDV.

No. Hearing Flyers intend on flipping Mrazek and trading for Johnson.
- Streit2ThePoint

So basically trading a 4th for Johnson.

If that happens you know Detroit is going to pissed.

People are waiting for the market to be defined. It's a buyers market so these teams with players they're wanting to move before they become UFA's have a closing window and will have to come back down to planet Earth on their price.

Mrazek for raanta. Coyotes quality mrazek and run him with kuemper. Boom

I actually think that a Mrazek-Raanta duo would be good for them both. One is missing a vowel at the beginning of his name and the other one has too many vowels at the beginning of his name. Maybe they could share.

It's a game of chicken. No one wants to give up anything and teams have prices so high on UFA's.

It will be interesting to see what team blinks first and either pays a big ransom or some team takes less to get ahead of the market and not be stuck with an asset that won't be back.

Would you give up a lot for him to run with Karlsson/Provorov.

No. But we're also not the cup favorites with a top 5 prospect pool.

Nahh I love EK but he's 29, has chronic foot issues, and is going to cost too much in both assets and cap space. Provy-Ghost pairing is all I need.

Also you have to plan to pay him which is going to be close to 8 million probably. Maybe even closer to 9.

Yeah pass on Karlsson.
