I have seen internet chatter that JVR is a possibility tomorrow.

Tostitos apparently have an expiration date.

i was pleasantly surprised with Shelley's play last night. Guy actually beat some people to the puck (even if those players had been on the ice for a 3 minute shift).

Which is why I'd still prefer one more trade if the price is right. Kubina would be nice, but that's probably doubtful given the abysmal defensive market.

I'm fine with Lilja/MAB/Gustafsson for the #6 slot.

He got some rest for guys during garbage time. I think Shelley played 6+ mins in the third period.

I can live with that also. Would like the Flyers to add one more piece before the deadline is over. Forward or Defenseman.

More cap room today with Sestito going on LTIR, and Gus sent down. I think an additional 1.5 million in cap space.

I like the idea of a checking forward.

Of course it all comes down to what they have to give to get.

So true. We can all play armchair GM but we don't have the info on prices. And I agree that is what is most important. I don't go all in this season by trading youth or our #1 (unless a long term good asset is coming back). Everything else is on the table though.

I'm really excited to see Grossman play

I am also prepared to keep my expectations in check.

Dont think the Flyes are looking in that direction. They could use another forward or defenseman first.

Honestly, I have no clue what his status is.

Is he even close to returning?

I would love to see the Flyers pick up a center who wins face-offs. Like 58%+ faceoff win percentage.

I don't know if there is a guy like that avail

Pittsburgh Penguins star Sidney Crosby skated with his teammates for the first time in more than two months Friday but remains bothered by concussion-like symptoms. Crosby says he's "getting better" but hasn't been able to shake some of the issues that have plagued him since he returned to the injured list in early December

indEEd!

Bill's blob about Grossman should help most hockeybuzzers keep their perspectives in check.

Moore to the Sharks was a nice pickup for them as well. Moore is one of those guys I just want to punch in the face every time I see him
