Obviously not going to happen, but what would you have given, in excess of Couturier, for Weber?
I would have given Couturier, Voracek, and 2 1sts personally. Would any of you have given more/less?

Imagine being the Icelanders.

Dont worry MJL, stats only matter if they support his point. He speaks as if there are one set of people calling Giroux's "legitimate" hits, while there is another set of guy calling Couturiers "illegitimate" hits.

Therefore, two sets of criteria. Dont you get it?

If you had to be hit on the ice which player would you choose to be hit by... Scott stevens rinaldo g peca or cooter? Exactly get my point. Sorry I value a hit as something other than touching someone.

eeeewwww

Booed mya$$ sabre fans would love briere back. They know it was cheap owner.
- SMS4016

Nope. Still gets boo'ed every time he touches the puck here. Guaranteed. Owner may have been cheap but it was neglect for a contract extension when Briere wanted to work something out midseason, which is against Sabres policy, that led him to test free agency. Not saying he wouldnt come back, but highly unlikely. Given the nonsense you've been pitching I need not feel the need to explain more.

From your argument you obviously don't know what a hit is.

I... um... wow. This is worse than the wall of text.

A guy who just scored 20+ goals at a cap hit of less than $1M for the next season is a luxury most teams would love.

He's my fourth favorite Flyer.

So you think that's overpayment to get the guy who looks to be the best defenseman of this decade for basically his entire career?

Well if the rumour (and it was just a rumour I know) was Couturier and Schenn, I'm not sending Voracek and 2 firsts in order to keep schenn.

Briere cherry picking

this team sucks so bad it does not need any jinx, anyway who would feel proud today if we beat the islanders?

Schenner

- mayorofangrytown

I understand that. I'm not asking Coots and Schenn. I'm asking would you have done the deal I proposed and if not, what pieces would have have taken away/added?

Nevermind the Isles, the Flyers can blow a lead with the best of them. Most recently a 3-1 lead vs. a Devils team these Islanders just manhandled.

Ahh....now 3-0. Isles have us right where they want us.

Great forecheck, and hustle today along with being alot more physical then Islanders...need this consistently.

Again get the facts. Buffalo took briere to arbitration. He was awarded 1 year 5 million. Briere and drury told buffalo they would both stay and for a discount They said they wanted 5 year 25 million buffalo cheap a$$es said no choose to try and sign drury but he left too. And any player gets booed by old teaM. Just like Montreal boos briere for not signing with them in free agency. Buffalo fans are not stupid

We have played more road games then any other teams in the NHL this season, IF we can find a way to go 3-3 on this tough 6 game road schedule, its not that bad as we will start to get some home games packed in.

simmonds gets tripped, penalty on flyers

I can't watch the game as I'm at work, but I have been watching the TSN Box Score.
At first, the Schenn (trade him for Bob Ryab) goal was listed as unassisted (although Voracek still had 3 assists; I was just assuming one of his others was so good that it counted as 2). Now they have TWO assists on it. Was it a puck that "almost" was controlled byt he Isles or was this a blatant mistype by TSN?
