A thousand times no to Edmonton

A million times yes to Toronto.

Same. But why would Toronto do that deal?

Looking to the offseason, any interest in signing Eric Staal for the 3C? Two yeas, $3M per, something like that. He may be too slow at this point, haven't watched the Wild much.

EDM is willing to part with their #1 pick would you make these trades

To EDM: Voracek, Elliott
To PHI: Lucic(25% retained), Pulijarvi, Talbot and 1st round pick

To Leafs: Simmonds and Gudas
To PHI: Kapanen and Johnson

I don't know what happened to Lucic. He's only 30 but plays like he's 40.

Andreas. Is 24, has 10G/11A this year.

I saw Johnson and was asking if it was Johnsson. I was trying to think which Johnson they had on their roster. one S makes a difference lol

I’d have some because he can still produce and just had 42 goals last season. I think he’d be a solid mentor for Patrick as well. But Idk if he’d sign for just 3M per

There are a few players the Flyers could/should kick the tires on.

Basically getting a 1st for taking Lucic for Elliott and Voracek for Talbot and Puljujärvi

That's a big NOPE.

No way Toronto makes the trade, so no point to discuss.

Johnsson?

Lucic I don't see why the Flyers need Talbot

- nastyflyergirl


EDM needs to lose Cap to add. A DMan and Talbot seem most likely to be dealt just so they can fit in an addition

Chia is trying to save his job. He is gone after this season. He will destroy the Oilers in order to try and save his job

If Fletcher made that trade it's the opposite, he has clearly given up and is trying to destroy the Flyers. No way you are only getting a struggling prospect and a UFA goalie for Voracek. Taking on a contract with a NMC for a player who does less than Lehtera, full tank mode.

Then he's including RNH or Draisaitl.

Exactly, Voracek is not going to Edmonton unless one of those are coming back OR a huge asset package is put together, which is unlikely because Edmonton needs to drop salary to fit him in.

Simmonds to Edmonton more likely since his contract comes off the books.

Anyone know how Sandstrom is doing? He seems to be forgotten about in all this goalie shuffling etc.

Backing up Jonas Gunnarsson, who is having a great season so far.

Who knows at this point, seems like every little thing that happens with the Flyers comes speculation of something.

Two possibilities that are UFAs-to-be:
- Michael Leighton
- Michael Neuvirth

Gun to your head, who do you sign?

Seeing Boucher doing interviews last night made me think of him in his rookie year.I think he was around 20,21 at the time.I thought he was going to be the next Patrick Roy at the time lol. Unfortunately he stunk the joint out the following year and never regained that form.Im excited about Hart but its a very guarded excitement. Mason is another guy i think about too.He was so good in his first year. Never got it back again.The league will figure out Hart.Its how he adjusts that will make him a star or not.

The players couldn't get their skates on due to excessive inflammation from the amount of pizza eaten after last night's win.

Hart's mechanics are much sharper then Boucher's or Mason's were.
