Yeah... i want to get one with my name on it.. but i'm not ready for people to ask me every 2 seconds who that person is...

Nice! i played for the Gladiators 92-94.....i stopped when i got to high school cause my parents wouldnt let me be on travel teams wtf.....

This is what I've learned today.

Rewind back to a year ago. The complaints were that Homer keeps trading away draft picks and prospects to bring in big names, leaving the cabinets empty. Homer's attitude was to "Win Now" and he almost succeed with this attitude but we didn't. So Homer tries a different approach. He trades away our biggest stars and talk piles draft picks and prospects but not just prospects but high touted prospects. Now fans want to trade away the prospects again to bring in Stars again.

Nah, (at least not all of us)

Oh man i remember the Gladiators... a friend of mines older brother played for them about that time... last name was Wilkes... i think...

He has 1 fight in 15 games.

Actually... If you include this year and last year... Carcillo has fought the same amount of times in a Flyers uniform.
- archion113

Maybe no one has wanted to fight him? Not many enforcers left in the league.

i call him "The Wet Napkin"
- Crimsoninja

No, they can still trade his rights before FA. Just like with Timonen and Hartsy.
- funmaster18

won't get nearly as much return for negotiating rights.

I dont want any GM for the Flyers that is going to say... We are going to sacrific this season and possible the next so we might win in a few years...

And I'm sorry if I feel we have 3 centers under 25 with All-star potential and I feel we could move 1 of them because we have 0 defensemen under 36 with All-Star potential...

4-2 Flyers, sweet!

I just hope homer holds onto schenn n coots

Unless his name is James van Riemsdyk, right?
- Jsaquella

J, my friend i just dont get that vibe with jvr...He will be a good player, but does he have the fire giroux has? i dont know...

So which one do you move to wing?

- GuyLaDouche

That's why it's up to them if they'd rather hang on to him and make a run at the cup or trade him after for less. That's why I don't think he will move before the season is out because the asking price will be pretty high in season. It's just what I think, I have no idea what will happen.

lol cant remember what i ate yesterday....

- RooNosHockey

i can see schenn playing a physical powerforward position...

J, my friend i just dont get that vibe with jvr...He will be a good player, but does he have the fire giroux has? i dont know...
- Philly1980

I'm not sure JVR has the "guts" to reach his true potential. But even if he doesn't he should be a good player, 30-40 goals a year.

But I would still trade it for a Young, good, defenseman... cause we need that more.

I don't think he does, but he's still a damned good player with a ton of potential.

He's also just 22. I'd hate to trade him and have him turn into John LeClair elsewhere.

30-40 goals a year is more than a good player.

See I think Schenn is better at F/O and play making, and Cooter will be better at hitting the corners on the wing, and using his body on the forecheck.

- Jsaquella

I don't mind trading him if it betters the team, but not if it's along with another top prospect like Schenn +. That's too much to throw away on 1 player, IMO.

I could see that also.

- RooNosHockey

so what's his "true potential"?

50-60 goals a year?
