Scott Hannan to Sharks for a condition 6th/7th rounder.

So they replaced Douglas Murray for a 6th rounder at worst

And it is 7:30, not 7 as bill has in the blog. I don't like the 7:30 start time myself. I end up working later and not getting to bed on time.

So far so good on not trading youth. Scrabble wasn't much, although I liked him better than Rosebud.

Picking up Hall on waivers is fine. No assets gone.

I like 7:30 start. Allows me to watch an inning or two of Doc against the Braves lineup. I'm more annoyed that there was an off-day yesterday for the Phils-Braves. That would've been a beautiful thing yesterday.

Because he's not a top pair puck moving defenseman or sniping winger

I just like that he's a decent faceoff guy. I'd look at bringing him back next year to handle a 4th line role.

Seems that people forget that there's 4 lines. Not every move is a superstar

Claimed Adam Hall on waivers. Kurtis Foster went unclaimed.

Thats because your a die hard, which is fine in flyerland.

BTW, I am not saying to make any dumb trades or anything. I just prefer they play young players at this point and put them in different situations to see what they really have heading into the offseason.

I like that Lauridsen played over Foster.

- flyers2001

the point is that they can STILL play the younger players a couple of weeks from now, if it turns out we can't get that 8th seed.

Acquiring Hall or any other bandaid-type of player today allows them to keep fighting for the playoffs, without giving up any of the young guys.

You can not compare this Flyers team with that Kings team, its not even close.

It's more about a team clicking at the right time than comparing one team to another.

Hall has won 54% of his draws this year but has under 200 on the year.

He HAS scored 0ver 12 goals 3 times, so he isn't inept.

He's a lot of team's garbage. Decent 4th liners tend to move around a lot. Kind of like decent middle relievers in baseball

Trade Feds, Gus and a 3rd-4th rounder for him!

Yeah congrats you picked up another 13th forward.

The Flyers have been reduced to picking up other teams garbage, because their own farm system is in shambles.

- flyers2001



The last post you said players on the farm team should come up because Hall is a waste. How can that be if the farm system is in shambles? Bottom line is none of the players that you listed can give the team what Hall can.
