Let's see, we could have signed him as a free agent last year and not done the Ellis deal and now we send 3 picks over to grab him. I guess this means that we are not expecting to see anything of Ellis but his salary cap bite. Someone please remind me why Chuckie is still employed here.

Elliotte Friedmann is saying the Flyers-Canes are close on a deal for DeAngelo.

2-years of Debrincat was worth a 1st, 2nd and 3rd.

5 days of Tony D worth 2nd, 3rd, and 4th.

Maybe Hart will play better after getting punched by a teammate?

Funny how many of his former teammates say he is not a Locker room issue at all. Any links where players said he is bad for the locker room?

I have read the same thing. This is a non-issue in my view.

Holy (frank). It’s not even lunch time. Someone take the phone away from Fletcher. Jesus Christ!

This is really bad. Has a GM ever been fired while the draft if happening? This is embarrassing.

Too many of Hextall's drafts were throwaways. Farrabee might actually be his best selection.
- Sinisalo4vr



I believe Hextall drafted 10 NHL players in his drafts here. With the potential for a couple more.

Flyers should go full heel turn and hire Billy Tibbetts as player development coach.

people with an agenda because they don't like the guy. Which is fine. No one has to like him.

Yea? Look at our “top players” then look around the league
- ClaudeFather


We all know Hextall failed to add any elite players in his drafts. Which is why his drafting was average at best.

So yesterday, Flyers passed up on a top RHD prospect, and today, they are handing out our draft picks like candy for a middle/bottom pair RHD that they will pay a whole lot more than ELC monies toward…?

Wake me up when it’s over.

Did Fletcher just add picks for fun? Did he think the rights to Tony D were a hot commodity? 80% of the league probably wants nothing to do with him
