Martin Jones to Phi, the one goalie I didn't want! I hope its a 1 year deal only.

Edit: 1 Year $2M .. not bad but I still hate it!

I think this is his first bad move this summer. I’m interested in hearing his thoughts on it. Might as well have kept moose.

Brian Elliott to TB. They are installing a time clock for him to punch in and out.

The player has a career .908 save %. There is no one better out there? Perhaps not in the price range, given that we know CF wants to sign a forward also. Well, Hart better bounce back hard this season.

If he’s here to play 20 games maybe it’ll work.

They wanted to show Hart is still the unquestioned #1 goalie with a more reliable health wise 2. Let s see how it works out.

Seems quite the opposite to all of the other moves Chuck Fletcher has made over the past week or so.

All the free agent goalies available Fletcher picks the one with the .896 save % last year. Can’t make it up

He had 3 really solid seasons as a starter followed by 3 not great seasons the past 3 years.

He's bizarrely finished with exactly an .896% the last 3 seasons despite seeing his workload halved. The Sharks haven't been very good the last two seasons specifically.

There's definitely a lot of experience there. Had even better numbers in the playoffs in the 3 years he played well for SJ.

I think there's something to work with here. Honestly just kind of excited we didn't sign Dubnyk.

Well the GM was bound to make one bad move after making several good ones.

I’m ok if it plays out that way. What I am worried about is if he’s one of those guys who needs to play a lot to be good. He needs to be able to bring it with 1/4 of the starts.

I didn’t understand that either, Bean looked like a good player and his AHL stats are spectacular, he put up some points in the NhL in his short stint as well.

A lot of money being thrown around right now on foolish contracts for marginal players. Not sure if teams are desperate or not but its definitely shaping up to be a sellers market, which given the flat cap I am surprised at. Glad the Flyers are not spending wildly, and honestly they don't need to. They have rebuilt their team with good trades, so just get a couple of complimentary pieces and move one. Still have not seen the Yandle deal posted, wondering if he is getting better offers from other teams?
