A fair point... just been an annoying day with work.

The flyers boards have been infested with clowns this offseason with ssb and plind. Don’t worry they go away once the season starts unless there’s a bad loss

Over his time with the Flyers Elliot has the following

2.81 GAA
.908 Save %
69 Games played.

I'll take that for a backup.

I have faith that sandstrom will be able to impress during camp and if elliot goes down he can be a viable option as backup.
- Richieattack18

This is where I am. Sandstrom is the real deal. That injury set him back a season but I think he lights it up in LHV...

He’s a stud

you must have been confusing him with mason
- 2Real

Not sure if you were kidding but here are Mason's stats with the Flyers

5 Seasons
221 starts
.918 save %
2.47 GAA

He was really good behind an AWFUL defense.

- Richieattack18

Right. Lyon is probably first callup especially early in season, but Sandstrom will impress and hopefully be the guy sooner rather than later.

What about Eric Wellwood?!

While were there, no love for Andreas Nodl

This kind of explains it. Because it was a 12 year deal.

The Kings terminated Richards’ contract, but are financially on the hook to him in annual amounts declining to $400,000 by 2031-32

Damn!

The goal vs Washington sealed his fate unfortunately, or the entire beginning of that playoff series really.

Remember that game a few years ago, late night in Edmonton Potulny scored the GWG agains the Flyers in the last 30 seconds of the game. Was the least surprising thing ever.

yea i remember that

True story. Unfortunate. He really was the best goalie we've had in a long time.

In reading this clownshow today Im beginning to wonder what the point of coming here is.. lol

1. Carter Hart that savior should be wrapped in a bubble and play less than 40 games because at 20 ..he might break a sweat.

2. Brian Elliot at 1 year / 2 million is a disaster waiting to happen.

3. See number 1

4. Also Flyers suck , always have sucked and always will suck because reasons.
- opeth_pa

don't you think our prized goaltender should be protected as to not burn out?

If there are 82 games in a season, but Hart shouldn't start more than 40, that leaves at least 42 games where he's not the starter.

So how is he the starter if he's not even playing half of the games?
- jmatchett383

Hart - 40 GP
Elliott - 39 GP
Lyon - 3 GP

Just a little sarcasm. I would plan to play Hart around 50 games. I think the league is trending away from the 60 games for starter goalies hoping to keep the goalies fresher for the playoffs.

Looking at Elliot's numbers as a Flyer, they aren't as bad as I thought. I don't know why I had a sub 90 save % and a plus 3 GAA stuck in my head.
- Pelle31Forever

Because you read this message board on a regular basis!

Apparently the Canucks get nailed with a cap recapture penalty of 3 million for the next three seasons. Panthers off the hook completely.


Ouch.

He was, and additionally, the way he played vs the rangers when he came back after the injury and got us to game 7, was very admirable. never had a defense in front of him that he could rely upon and really did have some good seasons with us.

That is what I get for listening to Seravelli.

Neuvirth is a whole different level of injury prone that has never been seen before. Moose will be fine for the amount of games he gets asked to play. All of his injuries came from starting him for waaay too many games
- Richieattack18

Right now there are a lot of assumptions that the Flyers will be healthier and better. You know what happens when you assume.....

As of now they need a lot to go right to even make the playoffs. And I haven’t even been a Fletcher hater. He’s kinda doing what we asked him to do, try to make the team better without giving away the future. This is what you get.

I'm hoping the added experience on D will put less stress on the goalies to stand on their heads all the time and hurt themselves less often.

i wouldn't count on braun to do that

he had many times where his blown coverages left Jones out to dry last season
