I went from 70-30 Flyers end up with Weber to 20-80.

Ryan will costs you a defensmen and we still need a defensmen so if they don't get Weber, they probably cant' get Ryan.

trade Jake, Mesz, 2 second rounders for Ryan
sign Doan 3/16

could you believe those lines?

Hartnell - Giroux - Ryan
Doan - Schenn - Briere
Read - Coots - Simmonds
Fedotenko - Talbot - Sestito

Word is that Anaheim wants a 2nd line Center in return. That means Schenn or Couturier

I'm confused, I thought that Nashville would have wanted a "Columbus style deal".

this sounds about right

Don't. Until I see Dreger or McKenzie tweet it that "rumor" means absolutely nothing. TSN guys get all the dirt and are on point. They wont make a tweet or announce anything without 100% confirmation.

how did you end up with that conclusion? With everything I'm reading, I think we lose out on Weber, over pay to get Ryan and sign Jake. and our d will be a weakness once again next year.

ryan should have greater trade value than nash imho, but i can't imagine someone giving up more than what NYR did for nash.

And then Flyers get Jaybo for nothing... like it or not....

Holmer's chips are in as far as I'm concerned. It's all in nashvilles corner

I don't think I'd do that.

Maybe just sign Arnott to help out the fourth line? anybody like to have Arnott for cheap?

I love when people say sign Doan or just sign Doan. The ONLY thing the flyers can do is offer him a deal. Doan accepts it or not.

Nashville wants the Flyers to take the bait. They are desperate here b/c their franchise player is on the line. They either have to match and pretty much crush their franchise for years, let him go for 4 1st, or bluff and get the Flyers to offer more/better players.

A big difference is going to be that there is no movement clause. And hence no limited number of teams that can be involved. So with there being one less scoring line forward available, and possibly more teams in the bidding. The price for Ryan went up.

I don't think I'd do that.

I definitely wouldn't do it.

I think JBow and Luongo may reunite in florida

Yes, and it's going to cost a lot more then the $4.75-$5.5M numbers I'm seeing sugggested.

if the Flyers sign Arnott, he's not playing the 4th line

The price for Ryan is too high.
I also thing Voracek is a better fit here than Ryan, with a cheaper hit - even with a raise.

No way Weber comes to Philadelphia.

Remember at the Winter Classic announcement he said "WE beat the Flyers on the way to 2 of our cups?" Totally forgot he was the Rangers GM.

You're not the brightest bulb in the box, are you?

Anyone with half a brain would have realized the moment Sather said "We kicked the hell out you twice in the Stanley Cup", he spoke truly.

Both the '85 Oilers and their '87 counterparts did, in fact, kick the the hell out of 'you' in the Finals.

So the flyers were in Nash they wanted Nash and weber??
