We don't know if the Flyers tried to acquire a backup goalie. We just know that they didn't

Any player can be acquired with payment of the right price.

It’s obvious what the plan was now. Wait for fedotov, he’s better than anyone else they can get, for free

People are too negative on this site. This team was in the toilet 18 months ago, and now look at them. We're talking about things that were never possible with Vigneault, Yeo or the other coaches who tried to turn things around. Try not to focus on the problems, yes they are definitely there, but try to enjoy it !

it is not negative. what i posted is very realistic as I see it.

look at them, they are still so far away from contention. so many things went right to get this average team they have this year.

You want Hextall back? He's the reason why the Flyers didn't draft Primeau. I was stunned when it went down. Hextall literally handed the pick to Montreal, a deferral trade, taking their next year pick. Had to be one of the most perplexing moves ever

LOL, okay then they should've offered a 1st rounder for an average backup. Obviously, the deal has to be right and fair to make. I would've thought that would be understood.

How do you know that? He's yet to play a single game in the NHL.

They're currently a below .500 team. There were several years under Vigneault and Hakstol where the Flyers had a better record then they do now.

According to some, your sports team has to win it all, or they suck.
It is a form of entertainment. Yes, it would be great if overnight they could become cup contenders. But that wasn't happening. And you know it. Therefore no need setting unrealistic expectations, admitted by the GM himself (they are building).
Danny agrees with you. He'll be done building when he himself is lifting the cup. Until then, he's building. And just nearly 2 years ago, this team stunk. They are competing for a playoff spot - enjoy it.

Not sure how legit these guys are but Hockey News Hub is hinting that Carter Hart is considering playing in the KHL.

I see. You want Hakstol and Hextall back.

You need to specify which Hakstol. The Seattle version, or the Flyers version? Because they aren't the same coach. He had to learn from a great coach 2 years to become what he is today. People forget it takes work, and doesn't happen by waving a wand, or going through a time machine.

LOL, where did I say I want anyone back? Why would I need to specify? You aren't making sense. You're overselling where this team is. I think you need to go back and review. I'm simply making the point that while they're certainly improved. They're not anything special. I'm also not convinced in any way that the current path is the correct path to anything. I'm also not going to settle for just enjoying the game. I want more than that. I've enjoyed hockey for a long time. I've set my sights higher.

Wow the dude is kneeling down and has the top of the net covered. By default he can cover more net than Felix.

I guess the money is better in Russia, but I'd rather go somewhere like Sweden, Finland, Germany, Switzerland, Czech Republic...
