Looks good on Philly. The play of Bryzgalov is called KARMA. Holgren deserves to be saddled with a mentally incompetant basket case for the next ten years. FULL NO MOVEMENT CLAUSE. Somewhere, Jeff Carter is laughing his ass off. Its completly unconsciable that the big H signed his two best players to 10 year deals and then turned around and traded them. Guy is the biggest piece of ___ in the NHL. I guarentee that Philly loses to Toronto in the first round.

So I guess its cool when Homer sets up Richards and Carter for life with deals like that, and they can't even come to early morning team meetings because their probably (frank)ing hung-over.

Please stop speaking.

Jeff Carter is laughing his ass off? The entire league is currently laughing at that idiot... wtf are you talking about?
- Flyers2821

What I am talking about is that Carter, who is with good reason, pissed at Philly and the classless douch named Paul Holgren, is laughing at how hilarious the whole jettisoning your two best players for an incompetant goalie is working out for them. I can't beleive I actually had to explain that! No too bright huh?

AND YES, I FLAT OUT GUARENTEE TORONTO IS MAKING THE PLAYOFFS.

So, for Nash and a better goalie than you have, you want to trade JVR, a prospect from a farm system that isn't that strong, a second string goalie in Bob and a late first round pick? I see, the quantity over quality thought process.
- Oneonta Penguin

Mason has been terrible......then again after today, can't say much about bob....but JVR an a first and as others have said....maybe Couborn.....the flyers eat a bad contract in Mason....it's dream if Bryzgalov is involved...ain't happening...

FLYERS BUZZ!!!

Those trades were very good trades fort he future of the Flyers organization.

Dudes who take hearsay (which is false) as fact do not get to tell other, more intelligent people to stop speaking.

Nash and his 7,8 M$ cap in Philly is not happening

The Flyers didn't trade Giroux who was by FAR their best player....and looking at the return both trades were justified....go watch your Leafs miss the playoffs again

Agreed...

Thats immaterial. IT was a complete lack of respect. IF they didnt turn around and sign Bryz, then yeah, I agree they were decent hockey trades. But the fact is, you cant look at those trades in a vacuum, you have to view the Carter, Richards and Bryzgalov transactions as one huge trade. In that trade, Bryzgalov for `10 years makes it one of the worst organizational descisions in NHL history.

How is it hearsay? Because I said they were probably hung-over? That has nothing to do with the fact they missed team meetings MULTIPLE times over the course of last season.

It has nothing to do with the fact that Mike Richards showed up to training camp 2 weeks late over 10lbs over weight, completely un-prepared for the season.

Those are facts. It has nothing to do with "you speaking more intelligently then me". Get real.

Buyouts are always fun...

By all accounts, Philadelphia isn't on Nash's list of teams and if it's a "crazy rumour", then why report it at all?

The lack of respect was the way Richards and Carter handled themselves after they were given those deals. Do a little research before you comment on the situation. Those two signed those deals and didnt take things seriously.

I have told the story before but I was at a bar on a Friday night when they had a 1pm game the next day and they were hammered at 2am. Needless to say they got smoked the next day and Richards and Carter were both horrible.

Respect goes both way.

And if you ask ANYONE around the Flyers... reporters, beat writers, fans... they all feel they were good trades for the Flyers. A lot changed for the better in the Flyers organization the day those two were shipped out. A LOT.

Mason is the goalie the Flyers need. Surprised it was a Nash/Carter/Mason trio going back the other way.

whats with all these crazy roomers?!?!?!

- Flyfreaky

Flyers fans will disagree, but it would take more than Bryz, JVR and a 1st. You need to consider Bryz's contract and terrible production (the contract holds negative value), JVR's concussion and underachieving so far in his career (the potential is still there though) and the fact it's going to be a late 1st.

what would it take for the Leafs?

I agree. The chances of Nash to Philly have to be under one percent. There is no way its happening. Theres a better chance Carter returns to Phily, which wont happen, but for the more cerebrally challanged in the audiance, I am saying that only to illistrate how low the chances of it happening are.

As to Bryzgalov, the only thing for philly to do is wait until after the new CBA and find out whether or not it includes a better buyout option. TO buy out Bryzgalov now would completely screw them for years. Better to wait and see if he returns to form, which isnt out of the question.

I agree it would take more, but Nash's contract has the same affect. He isn't worth 7.8 mill per year, which will ultimately hurt their return no matter who he is traded to.

I don't think any team is gonna take that contract...They will have to buy him out...

Mason is bad......real bad.
