Bill Meltzer: Meltzer's Musings: Flyers Arbitration Dates, Flyers Alumni

1ST!

Dog days of summer are upon us!

Kind of surprised manning still is not signed, cant blame him for trying to get a raise..but he doesn't have much leverage.

July 15th for Schenn? That would be tomorrow. Did you perhaps mean July 25th?

I agree..date seems a bit soon...but at least we wont have to wait as long, if true

You guys are right. Arbitration hearings are from July 20th to August 5th. Schenn is July 25th

I read it was July 25th on TSN

That's what I figured, pretty sure the date would have been set a while back if it was tomorrow.

Interesting article when you flash forward to today.

They really drag out this arbitration poop.

Get it done already. It is insane we even need it to get this clown signed

Does anybody else get the feeling that Bill Foley is a (frank)ing idiot?

Well poop they were right

One must wonder if the disloyalty shown to Richards and Carter will make Sean Couturier and Brayden Schenn apprehensive about signing long-term deals, especially before testing the free agents markets.

No idea who he is, but I definitely get that feeling

Anyone hear anything else on the Evander Kane rumors to Philly from the other day?

another gem from the article...shows how much they know about Flyers fans

Every disappointing Flyers team has had a scapegoat.

A linesman's missed offsides call, Terry Murray, Eric Lindros, Bill Barber, every goalie for the last 30 years, Dan Carcillo and a mistimed fight, a drunken captain and leading goal scorer who formed their own locker room clique...

But it seems this team, as chemistry grows throughout the season, might be the most solid and complete Flyers team of the past decade.

This only begs the question, without Richards and Carter to kick around anymore, who will get blamed when this season ends, as every one has since 1975, without a Stanley Cup?

We have been struggling to find a scapegoat

If you hold up your shoe and put it to your ear, you can hear Evander Kane to Philly rumors

I believe he's the man who invented the King-Rook swap ("Castling") in chess. Brother of Henry Daley, the first man to successfully battle 4 full-grown polar bears armed with only a garden hose.

I thought you heard Mike Milbury when you did that.

It's still Carter's fault.

I think that's the biggest concern with the Flyers

He'll be traveling with Byfuglien

Or we have just turned into "oh just wait till all our prospects get here in a year".
