Okay here is the scoop from my perspective. I admit you get under my skin sometimes but I am sure the feeling is mutual. I have said some things I regret once in awhile as I really like everyone despite coming across undiplomatic on some issues. For example, I want to argue with MJL on many of his posts but at the same time the guys does make a lot of sense 75% of the time. Please accept my apologies and I will endeavor to be nice for awhile. The nice thing about HB is the freedom to express an opinion on the Flyes and the NHL. I just live for hockey and Flyers hockey is my biggest charge.

each of us has our own style...it's the internet...

most of us do make sense, it's just the redundacy of repeating the same argument over and over again...

So do I. I remember screaming that homer got raped I wanted to sign Beuchemin and Kurtis Foster. 2010 was a great run. Pronger's last few years and with his future status underterminable, I not so sure the Flyers would't be in better shape at this point( given that everything played out the same way, ie Richards, carter). BTW, what ever happen to Foster, I havent heard boo about him for a while.

Espo is a funny dude. He still holds a grudge to this day because the Russians stole all their beer.

He tells the story of him getting traded to the Rangers and it makes me crack up every single time.

Basically, it boils down to him and Orr in the hotel room, and Cherry comes in to break the news. Espo says, well, if I'm traded, I'm traded...but if it's to New York, I'm jumping out of that bleeping window. Cherry tells Orr to move away from the window.

why not blow the whole dam team up again?

I'm happy with the team and the depth. At this point i would only make a trade if you don't lose too many a$$ sets/depth. this includes D

I would do the two for one. I am not convinced JVR will ever have the mental toughness or ever be injury free. Reuniting the Schenn's I think would be huge for both of them and the flyers.

Jim Jackson named Pennsylvania Sports Broadcaster of the year by the NSSA(National Sportscasters & Sportswriters Association).

I was going to say how did this happen, then I remembered that Paul Steigerwald was the competition.

I wouldn't do that...Franson has a ton of ability, but Nashville dropped him for two guys it almost immediately bought out. Basically, if David Poile's giving up on a defenseman, I have limited interest.

Not saying Franson's awful, just wouldn't trade JvR in a deal where he was 50% of the return.

I think he is going to have a very successful NHL career. And it terrifies me to think that it could be elsewhere. If he goes somewhere else and outperforms Bryzgalov I might go postal.
- PLindbergh31


Exactly the way I feel. The only problem is Bob only has one year left on his contract and there is no way he will ever sign here to back up Bryz for the next several years. The flyers will be forced to trade him at one point to make sure they do not lose him for nothing when he becomes an UFA.

I wonder if Steiggy and Errey have been broadcasting standing on stools with ropes around their necks the last two weeks.

The whining must be epic.

He also has a great one about giving Nick Fotiu a Flintstone's Vitamin as a PED.

The stories that man has need to go into a book.
