CRAP!

The injury stuff borders on the comical. I'm expecting Gagne's flight to hit turbulence. He will hit his head and become concussed.

The NHL owes us for Kane

The hockey gods owe us for the last 37 years.

so we're entitled to mckinnon or seth jones

I'm hoping its a pre-emptive move to replace Briere. Only way the move makes any sense.

I appreciate your pre-emptive optimism but for me this only makes sense if Holmgren flips Gagne for a 2nd at the deadline.

Habs also got a 3rd in the deal.

I'd settle for a good GM who can manage the cap and the team's assets, ie, picks and youth.

What?!?!?!

Dean Lombardi should be our GM. We had our chance.

Nope Briere will get smashed next game and stop all trade talk as he can't be traded if he's hurt.

Unfortunately it won't matter until Ed snider is no more

"Gagne also disclosed recently that he had a growth removed from his neck in July, calling it the size of a tennis ball."

WTF?!

Well I guess thats where the puck from the SCF went.

with McGinn that is really bad, even if he is back in two weeks he won't be able to fight. That takes away from part of his game. Anyone here know how long it really takes for that to heal? After this what is chance he's going to want to fight again?

I don't know why the kid needs to fight?

#Flyers GM Paul Holmgren announced that (F) Tye McGinn will be out at least 2 weeks with a broken orbital bone

It's not really a big part of his game even though he is a big boy, he's never had more than 55 pims in the minors. He's a young guy trying to make an impression so he was gonna want to impress and make his mark.

not that that is all he can do or does, but it probably helps him on this team having that as part of his game. I know hockey players deal with pain like no one else, but 2 weeks isn't going to give that enought time to really heal. It's just another player hurt that they can't afford.

so laught

We're taking on his $3.5M cap hit and had to give up a 4th? They should've given US the 4th...

Unless Holmgren is flipping Gagne and Knuble to a real Cup contender next month, Holmgren needs to go.

Unfortunately, a real contender wouldn't want them.

At least this sends the message to the team that he still thinks they can make the playoffs. Sadly, he thinks Gagne is the man to help them.

I am laughing to keep from crying.

I can understand not approving of the deal. But calling for the GM's job over it. Is an overreaction.
