so everyone is talking about getting a defenceman in the offseason...

which UFA D would people go after?

Are there any defensemen that are facing a potential buyout that the Flyers could use on the cheapish?

none....

His team has won more playoff rounds than all but one team in the past ten years. That's a pretty nice positive

wow that's heartbreaking

None of them. I make a trade. The UFA crop is all older(over 35) or going to be really overpaid(Hainsey)

We already signed the best available guy for 6 mil next year, for better or worse depending on your opinion.

good luck w/that

I know this is rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic, but I don't like these lines:

FLYERS
15 Tye McGinn - 28 Claude Giroux - 93 Jakub Voracek
19 Scott Hartnell- 10 Brayden Schenn - 17 Wayne Simmonds
12 Simon Gagne - 25 Max Talbot - 24 Matt Read
26 - Ruslan Fedotenko - 14 Sean Couturier - 36 Zac Rinaldo

Switch Couts and Talbot.

Don't like McGinn on the top line.
Read or even Gagne is better.

yes

yes

Lavi is going to send Couts, Feds and Rinaldo out against Moulson/Tavares/Boyes and its going to work as well as it did against the Nash line and the NYRs on Tuesday.

I have a weird feeling Homer is going to end up trading for Joni mini stick for his encore with the Orange and Black.

I guess stranger things have happened.

Well, they have brought back players before. Jody Hull had 2 magical runs with them. Sim, Gagne, and Knuble have all come back. I'm convinced that Boucher just asks for extended leaves of absences between his Flyers' stints.

yum

have you tried this yet?
highest recommendation.




the name sums up the Flyers season, too

Blow it up and suck for a few .... only way theyll get out of this mess...thats what having no depth does!

I'm willing to bet Briere is fine by the end of the season. It is much better for him financially to be bought out and become a free agent. He is only scheduled to make 5 million in actual salary the next to years. If he gets bought out, he gets around 3.3 million over the next 4 years, plus I'm pretty sure he will get at least a 2 year 5 million deal from someone. So basically if he gets bought out he will probably make an additional 3.3 million.

I read this too fast and thought you were implying we had to pay him 3.3 mil every year for the next 4. But I get it we pay 2/3 of his total salary for the remaining years. So 3.3 mil total. Then he gets to go in for another team immediately...

I'm slow today.
But I agree I think he forces us to buy him out. Good guy or not 3.3 mil is worth it (alimony or not).

- eayost

Likely: Kaberle, Komisarek, Ballard

Possible: Jeff Schultz, Tallinder, Sarich, Liles



Ballard and Liles are still useful. The others, not so much.

making animated gif now....!

•Renaud Lavoie: There is lots of interest in Max Talbot, but the Flyers are saying he “not available.”

I'm not shocked that teams are calling for Talbot. He's been one of our better players and at a reasonable cap hit.

i can't tell r u being serious?

if you're going to rebuild do it right bring in the right personell i'm tired of these half-assed patchwork seasons

if someone overpays for him and i mean really overpays homer has to pull the trigger

Talbot's reduction in goals/offense aside, I think of Talbot as being part of the solution to turning this around.....not part of the problem.
