I will not be a happy camper if he doesn't end up here.

I think we are looking to deeply into this. Weber signed an OS with the Flyers. As of today he is 100% a Flyer. As an RFA the Preds. have the option to match by Wednesday at 11:30pm. Its that simple.

As an organization you didn't meet for the first time 36 hours till deadline to decide what to to do. The decision has been made months if not years ago. Nashville simple dosen't have cash on hand to through around.

If I were to guess, with The partnership that Polie and Homer have had this was a deal designed by both to allow all three parties to get what they need while saving face.

Flyers get a bona fide #1 Dman
Weber gets on a bona fide team able to pay to win
Preds get to place blame on Powerhouse team and walk away with picks.

If anyone thinks the Nashville owners and Polie were stuned and needed 5 days to clear there heads that there number 1 dman was given an offer sheet are kidding themselves. They tried for two years to lock him and others up but are not in a position to do so. This meeting today is about saving face- only! IMO

cause if they would've done that, the flyers would've moved on and made moves (nash, doan). they want the flyers to agonize over it for putting them in that position to begin with.

and doing it to their own fans too, as well as passing up the same opportunities to improve their club? I dunno....

CBS Sports actually put out a story on Insiders and they used him as an example, pretty much taking him down.
