Frank Seravelli says the Flyers have acquired Justin Braun from the Sharks, which is odd.

Seems like everything has to go right for the flyers to contend. Most think all these dman and fwd are going to pan out into stars or top end players. Time will tell and it is going to be entertaining as hell...

The same is true for every team in a 31 team league.

I mean, his tenure for Minnesota was the bench mark of how NOT to build an average team.

Right?

Sigh.

Can someone who isn't part of team negative give a run down on Justin Braun's last few years? I don't watch too many sharks games

16 points, 32 years old for a 2nd and 3rd, with the 2nd being in a deep draft??? I would like hope there is another move that this is just the first part because it looks lousy so far

Garbage. Clearing the decks for another team to create cap space. 41st pick for a one year rental.

Steady, but slowing down.

Dude's 32 years old and has never been the fastest guy, but got by on solid positioning and making the safe, smart play.

He'll take a hit and get the puck out, but will probably have issues defending on the rush and against quick forwards.

going from no deals for years and keeping picks and prospects to all of a sudden trading picks and players. I cant do this. I was looking forward to the draft now ill have to hide in a corner with a coloring book and crayons till its all over.
