there are US laws in place but people ignore most of them

and when they wind up in jail they should blame themselves not those that apprehended them.

Yes, I do. Obviously if they have that on Parent, it would be something that was updated recently. The date on there is recent.

2012/06/12 Signed with the Eisbaren Berlin of the Deutsche Liga (Germany).

June 12 is also the date of that German report I linked to. TSN goofed.

That brings up a good point. If I can recall - Walker really didn't play all that bad for a 6-7 type of a guy. The main problem was his cap hit. And, sure the 1.7M cap hit was an issue. But, the cap is not an issue anymore. Not that it's an ideal situation, but Walker as a 6 spot guy wouldn't be the end of the world.

Yea, I'm sure he will be given an opportunity in Camp also. They have the Cap space, they could keep him with the big club. I would think he would have to significantly outplay the others though. As that Cap hit would hurt the Flyers ability to make moves later in the year.

I'd love for someone like Manning or Kessel or even Akeson to fly out of left field and contribute.

Since every Flyers season is a cavalcade of injuries, I wonder if the team would consider changing the logo. Perhaps this would be an option.


- PLindbergh31

no they wouldn't cause that's a stupid idea and you should feel bad about yourself

Two weeks ago I envisioned a Weber/Meszaros pairing, now I have images of a Manning/Lilja/Gervais/Bourdon/Gustafsson Chinese fire drill dancing through my head.

this is a whole other conversation, bottom line we all agreed to the COC here, and if we disagree there's nothing making us come to this site, there are several other sites on the internet that will allow you to make a fool of yourself. IF that's you're thing then by all means... As for the laws in RL yes there are bullpoop laws, having worked in our criminal justice system I can attest to this, however they are laws and when we break them we should only blame ourselves for staring through a pane of glass in a 6x9 room made of cinderblocks. No system is perfect either but we live in a pretty damn good one... for now.

Plenty of capable players in that group. I envision a very exciting and talented young team that will make the playoffs. Where once in, anything can happen. And I wouldn't be shocked at a deep run in the playoffs.

Exactly. Don't call anyone an offensive name. Simply post an Internet picture or GIF file to replace the insult. Let's be mature.

There is always the option of becoming a fan of another team that better suits your needs as a fan!

There can never be enough 6/7 defenseman on a roster.

History tells us that is true. That defensive depth is a good thing. You know what else is a good thing? Competition for roster spots and playing time.
