Sooo...safe to say, regardless of health, Elliott and Neuvirth have played their last games in a Flyers sweater.

No question and most likely career for Neuvirth. Maybe he gets lucky and gets a contract overseas, but his days in the NHL are over.

You cant teach 6"5 but you also cant teach being healthy either. Stolarz has had a lot of lower body issues. I cant be too upset with the deal thecause while Talbot has been bad, he also has a sucessful history. Stolarz has 19 NHL games under his belt.

I like the kid but if the Flyers sign Talbot at a lower cap hit than 4 mill and he bounces back, it will easily be a win.

Just wait. Holland will trade Howard for a 7th rounder and sign Neuvirth for 4 years at six million this offseason.

All in all its a good deal for both sides, much needed cap space for oil for a decent stand up guy that is a mentor to Hart.. Hopefully you can re sign Talbot on the cheap and he can regain some of his former self

We finally win a trade. Getting the cap space i thought would cost the oil a second rounder, esp with philly not being on talbots trade list. Im sure he will get at least 10 games with edmonton the rest of the way. Goalies always seem to do better away from philly as well.

Talbot is not a bad goalie. Hes having a bad run because hes playing behind the absolute worst d-core in the league. He will surprise you guys in the playoffs. This was a beneficial trade for both sides I think.

Well I am guessing this is not the last trade between Flyers and Oilers
Cant see why Flyers take Talbot's salary
They are working on a 2nd trade

If Stolarz knee can hold up, his highest ceiling is probably a backup playing no more than 20-25 games. Wish him the best because he has size and decent lateral movement.

VAN trades Sam Gagner to EDM for Ryan Spooner. Even up. No salary retained.

Foolish to give up on Stoli after so much time invested. You can’t teach 6’5”

This is the 25th team Ek has had Zuccarello traded to. Before his favourite player to be traded was Galchenyuk. Ek beat the Gally horse for 5 years. Now it's Zuccarello. I think he just likes saying his name. I know I do.

Meh, not really - if he can get even slightly close to his ability again (i.e. not have to deal with the poopshow oilers D) then you could have bought a Franklin for a Washington...
