didn't watch the game...they won

2 questions - 1) who is this Huskins they trade for? and 2) how did Oliver play?
- Manitobakid

Huskins played with Pronger on D back in the Anaheim days.
Spare part, back up D man who only played a handful of games for the Redwings this year.

2 real are you trolling
you kant be serious with this kaberle crap
- Marc D

you're telling me you wouldn't use kaberle as a stop gap?

I almost left after the second because my sinus is killing me. I even had to blow off my aunt & uncle in the parking lot so I could get home.

I want to credit the worst headache I've ever had and the medicine for inspiring my prediction today.

More seriously, I think Anthony San Filippo's article from yesterday will come true: the Flyers win tomorrow, the Isles & Rangers lose and boom! 2 points out of the playoffs with 13 to go.

Far-fetched, I know, but I like the dramatic fashion it could take.

Everyone enjoy the rest of your Holy Saturday. I'm off to nap this off, I hope.

Huskins costs zilch if they dont resign him.

he's better than the bottom end guys we got to fill in

I wouldn't want him to stop kids from crossing the street...another guy way past his prime...no thanks

No way and I can't believe you want to either.

Aren't you the guy who wants to blow it up, get rid of coburn and the rest for draft picks to suffer until they get some real players in here, right?

Now you want an overpaid guy with another year left on his deal at 4.25m to come and play here?

just trolling right?

Kaberle is signed through next season on an over 35 deal.

Huskins is free if the Flyers don't re-sign him before Oct 1st 2013

4.25m on the cap next season does not = free

come on dude bringing in kaberle for free lets us trade timonen for something of value and have a body to replace him for this season and maybe next
if kaberle redeems himself we can dump him next TDL for something to help as well
low risk to claim him

if things don't work out next season just let him walk we're not winning anything next year

Todays win aside, they still arent makin the playoffs. I would waive foster and let Manning play some too.

And if Kaberle retires this summer, they have $4.25mm in dead cap room

if they trade kimmo and replace him with kaberle we will be picking in the top three next year too

Well, FWIW, if the Rangers lose tonight, the Flyers are 4 points out.

As far as Manning...meh. He's been really up & down in the AHL. He'd easily win the Master's with his +/-, though (-30)

- Jsaquella

this is just his schtick, can not be serious or have watched kaberle

so? he's still going to play
- 2Real

Based on his play of late, I'd rather he retire and have the $4.25mm in dead space

that's the plan rebuild the team properly through the draft

Lol re Manning. Hard tosee them passing thevRangers, when they cant beat the Rangers.

I feel a win streak coming on, but not enough to make the playoffs

Still it would be sweet to get Pitt again this year (ummm, maybe not, but you know what I mean)

- Jsaquella

they can still buyout his last year without a cap hit.

Personally I hope he stays in MTL for the playoffs as a safety net in case of injuries. The only reason why he is on waiver is because of the 23 men roster until next Wednesday. They have a few injured players coming back soon.
