I'm not playing this game. There was a large portion of the fan base who wanted to trade Streit, including many amongst us on here (Similiar to MDZ this year), and Elliot Friedman certainly reported many teams were calling the Flyers asking about his availability.

Ek called the Petr Straka trade like 35 weeks out

It's not a game. As I said previously, I don't believe the Flyers were trying to trade Streit, so I don't think any injury he had in a previous season, stopped the Flyers from being able to trade Streit. Rumors or fans wanting to trade a player, doesn't really qualify as concrete evidence of a team trying to trade a player.

Trust me the rumor chart here is super exciting as a Flyers fan.

nothing compared to the one on pizzabuzz. it focuses solely on the world cup of hockey

Nicely done, and I don't disagree with your final conclusion.

Bold = save% is very much a team-related stat, too. ;-)

But on tuesday there will be a new chart on TACOBUZZ on Olympic involvement.

Mason isn't going to get anywhere near that much money. He's a .903 goalie after half a season.

Biron was a top 10 goalie during his two years as the Flyers starter, and put up .915 in his contract year. Even so, the Flyers let him walk and he ended up having to take one year deal at $1.4m from the Islanders.
- Feanor

You seem to have no belief that Mason will improve his numbers over the second half of the season. If I remember correctly, Mason has finished strong in nearly every season as a Flyer. What was his save % after December in all of those seasons?

But they could have tried to trade him.

I want to see if anyone can get this obscure music reference:

There's a lady who's sure
All that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh ooh and she's buying a stairway to heaven.
There's a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook
There's a songbird who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it makes me wonder.
There's a feeling I get
When I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen
Rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who standing looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.
And it's whispered that soon, If we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow,
Don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the May queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder.
Your head is humming and it won't go
In case you don't know,
The piper's calling you to join him,
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How ev'rything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.

dont mean to burst your bubble, but...

How will people feel if they don't move Streit or Del Zotto at the TDL? I would be disappointed. Especially since I don't see either with the team next season. And I know they are on the playoff bubble but I am not sure it's worth it to keep them.

EDIT: Sorry. I just like to gauge the temperature of people since everyone has different opinions on the team.

I'm in the same thought process. If we aren't resigning them trade them and get something for them since we aren't a cup contender this season. With or without them

Not overly disappointed. They would just bring in more draft picks(wouldn't expect high) or expendable prospects. The farm system is stacked and they have another 10 picks in June.

I'd prefer one of them was moved but it won't be the end of the world if they're both here at the end of the season.

Just wait until J-Bo finishes the last 2 months of his career as a Flyer.

Stock up on picks to be able to move up in the draft if they really want to. Also maybe get a pick an extra year or two down the line if you really think we have enough in the next draft.

Just wait until J-Bo finishes the last 2 months of his career as a Flyer.
