I like the L Schenn suggestion. My bro has a TML Luke Schenn jersey, which is the main reason I got him the B Schenn after Luke got traded to PHI.

I`ll have to give it some thought... maybe I should wait until this offseason, or even next offseason, because we`re gonna have to make some moves to get under the $64M cap, and then the $60M cap.

Thanks for the input, Flyguys!

I have 3 jerseys.. Carter, Richards, JvR.

Lets just say I am not allowed to get pictures with players or buy their jerseys if we want them to stay around.

He's still trying to return his Carle jersey. Have to wait for the refund.

I am very glad to see Gagne back in orange and black. I've been hoping for this move for awhile now!

He won't score half as much as he used to, but he can help this team in so many ways.

As a side note, I just got my profit sharing check from my employer and I want to blow some cash on a new Flyers jersey because I have no active Flyers players (miss you Richards).

I am stuck on deciding between Hartnell and Couturier, but now I am wondering if I should get Gagne... he used to be my # 1 favorite NHLer.

Bill, the game tonight starts at 7:30 (not 7) and is an NBC Sportsnet ("Wednesday Night Rivalry") exclusive. (It is not being telecast on CSN in either Philadelphia or Washington.) Doc Emrick will do PxP with Edzo (color) and Pierre ("Inside the Glass").
- iScoop


....And as I have done many hundreds of times since I worked with Doc for the first time in 1977, I'll be sitting next to him and Edzo in the booth feeding him little notes with bits of historic hockey trivia while also providing statistical and other information to the NBC truck to be fonted on the screen.

Thanks Jafsie! (It's been almost 39 years now since I took that swig from the SC in the Flyers' room in the Spectrum on May 19, 1974, but I remember it as if it were yesterday.)

I saw someone complaining about the Gagne trade. Along the lines of "giving up a NEEDED draft pick" for nostalgic purposes, nothing more.

I went with the safe bet last year and got Giroux. Now I need to get the C for it. The only other Flyers' player's jersey I have/had is John LeClair but I got that for my birthday when I was 9 or 10. Needless to say, it doesn't fit anymore.

Good point. I get positive comments every time I wear my Poulin jersey.

I second Jsaq's sentiment. Always nice to "see" you here, Scoop.

Emrick has a terribly annoying voice; like a hyperactive gnome. And he spends half the time talking about stuff that has nothing to do with what's happening on the ice, and the other half shoving in his awful catch phrases like "waffle-board". Just call it a blocker like everyone else does.
- Feanor


I don't mind "waffle board" as that's an old-school name. It's all his other cliches and crutches that have worn on me after living nearly 20 years in NJD country.
