Capgeek does it all. The Flyers have not used LTIR at all to this point of the Season. That's why there is no values for that. Just know that right now, the Flyers have LTIR Cap space available to them for Pronger and Walker. And also for Hartnell and Meszaros if they choose to use it. But remember, the exemption is only temporary, with players that won't be out for the full Season.

Oh, that makes sense. Use all your normal cap space 1st then the LTIR of Pronger(since he's not coming back) the Walker, Hartnell, Mez if needed. That's a pretty high number

You have no choice, but to use all of your normal Cap space first. That's how it works. Have to be careful though, because the Flyers are also using the bonus cushion. That's the danger.

I'll keep an eye on that column on capgeek, but seems like there's plenty of wiggle room especially since Gus and Briere are getting healthy.

Really solid game. Matt read is a quality 2-way, versatile player. Love him. Bryz with another terrific game and nice to see hom get some bounces for once. Knuble loooked good, and briere too. Both came close to scoring.

No injuries. Hope they keep it going tomorrow. Tampa always seems to beat them regardless of circumstances.

Not sure what you mean by Gus and Briere being healthy in terms of the Cap situation.

I remember they potted 8 in Vancouver on new years eve back around 99-00 or there about. Thinking they had 6 or 7 there too early in the season just a year or two ago.

Great game, but they were playing the AHL Panthers.

Still, great job.
I can't get over Bryz.
He looks like the goalie from last March.
