I’m personally over it. I think Bill brought up a good point about, in hindsight, trying to put him through waivers before the season started. If Prosser as they said impressed in camp and took the 8 or 9th spot from Friedman, it would have been good to do it then. I mean let’s be real since we are talking an 8/9 role, unlikely to play more than 2-3 games, Prosser the vet is the better choice to sit out.

This gets Friedman a chance to play and gives the Flyers an open contract spot. Move on.

I was happy to the take the $725K/year in cap space. Every little bit helps.

Just makes the Bobby Ryan trade easier. Lol

Quoted wrong post. Should be for the Friedman savings.

So Myers out on a hit that did not have to happen. I dont know if it was illegal, I really think it was late, maybe he says he was in the act of already. I say at the least it was predatory. He was coming from the blind side for one reason

I would trade for a Bobby Ryan type player within the coming weeks. Who have we lost within the last month to Covid? Giroux, Voracek, Braun, Lindblum, Sanheim, Laughton and Farabee. We’d be lucky to have a Bobby Ryan right now as a depth player as the type of cost. You can even alternate between Ryan and Aube-Kubel. NAK is younger and I understand wanting him to play but Ryan is more likely to produce and move up in the line up.

Anything more than a second...walk. He’s a pending UFA. He has injury history. His offense can fall off as anytime. He’d just be depth for us. I’d low ball them with a third and work up to a second.

Looked like a check up high.
- bmeltzer

Yeah, saw the play where he (EDIT: Myers) got hit late after his shot (hope the league is looking into that, but I doubt it). But I thought he had more shifts in the rest of the period before being taken out during 2nd Int.

Just wanted to know if it was "upper body" or something else.

And it looks like he's going to be out for at least Saturday:

Says it's undisclosed. Hope it's not a concussion...

I don’t know if you would consider it “more” but maybe they would look for a close-to-NHL-ready prospect instead of a draft pick. A few moves like that could speed their rebuild.

Not Bobby. You’re thinking of the Calgary gentleman.

Yea but he may have had to pass waivers again. 10 games or 30 days I believe and waivers go into effect again. Could be wrong.
- Peter Richards


He'd have gone down to the Taxi Squad and been recalled as needed. Barring some sort of long-term absence on the NHL roster, he wouldn't have hit the threshold where he'd need to pass through waivers a second time.
