Dallas signed Holtby.

Goalie trade gotta be coming there.

- mochoson

Holtby signed for the same exact deal as Jones, you trying to tell me the Flyers scouts thought Jones was a better option? What am I missing here?

That maybe he didn’t want to play here, play within the same division as the caps, or just saw Dallas as a good fit.

Martin Jones!? Are you f’ing kidding me? You needed a guy that could play should Hart struggle. This guy can’t play at all. He’s worse then Elliott.

My prediction is if Hart struggle even a little the coach is going to pull the plug and insert Jones. This is why I preferred a much better goalie to come in.

Same age. Maybe holtby didn’t want to come here as backup and thinks he can win a job in Dallas. Or likes the weather haha

Well thankfully the backup is a much worse goaltender so it will go right back to hart

He couldn’t stand seeing Emery on Hart’s mask. I don’t blame him.

What the Eklund!?!%^@!%@

I would be more confident in using Sandstrom as backup than Jones, at least Felix is unknown.

Brossoit goes form 2 years, AAV $2.3M, this would have fit the Flyers budget also, I guess they preferred Jones over the other players for whatever reason.

He's gonna be fighting Bishop, Oettinger and Khudobin for playing time. Weird choice.

Too much to ask to not have a totally out of left field and horribly embarrassing decision every offseason I guess.

Flyers are getting blasted again.

I’m hoping they give hart more than 2 starts to show he’s recovered before the hook. The idea is to give him a chance and his track record shows he’s solid. I just don’t think the org is looking to throw him under the bus and cut bait as soon as he gives up a soft goal. We’ve been down that road with bob etc and Ot didn’t work out. Patience with him.
