Boston is going to take a big step back also, look at who they are signing, all players that were good 10 years ago. They are going to be old and lacking center depth.

It's July 1st. Long way from roster finalization.

It is absolutely amazing that salary cap idiot Barry Hanrahan is still employed.How many ridiculous, untradable contracts do you have to hand out before you’re fired? How does it feel when no one in the league will trade for you’re players unless you pay 50% of their salary? This guy is and has been one of the biggest problems with this team. You could hire literally anyone and they wouldn’t do any worse than this guy.

Its funny that ghost is apparently wanted by teams and noone here thought he was worth a 7th round pick.

Fans of every team have guys like this. It isnt just a Philly thing

Kind of like Deangelo...he's worthless on Philly, but eventually when he leaves teams will still sign him to 1 year deals until he is juiced out. The PP specialist has always been a dime a dozen that gets swapped around the league.

You are aware that Barry doesn't negotiate the contacts or set the budget, right? That's the GM's job. Barry manages cap and CBA compliance.

Flyers sign Garnet Hathaway. Sure feels like a forward currently on the roster is going to be traded. See how it plays out

I keep thinking another forward would be traded. Another less nice possibility is that a player/players unknown are injured. Right now the Flyers have 13 forwards not counting Foerster or any other rookie prospect.

He will probably drift around every year and bounce around between 1 and 2 year deals.

Does make one wonder if Cam or Coots or both aren’t gonna be ready.
