Did he have his jaw wired shut?

I read an initial report that he may not have to have that done.
- Atomic Wedgie

Ah, well wired or not, he's not chewing.

I think the PA wanted them as much as some owners. The owners were cool with it, as long as it was not outside of the players' share, which makes sense.

Depending on the buyouts this summer, we could see guys like Luongo being bargains for teams, as their old teams pay them for the next 15 years or more.

basically like the isles and yashin except they'll still be in the league.

Who knows, wouldn't be the first time they added a "Anti-Devils" type player. They added Mogilny once upon a time.
- Jsaquella

And Kovalchuk. But yeah, that would suck.

anybody know who's getting the start in goal tonight?

I believe it was tweeted by a couple of people that it was Bryz once again.

No.

We all agreed Mason is.

How the JVR situation going?

Looks like he came back down to earth quickly

Probably bryz, they probably want to get Mason acclimated to the team and getting him some practice with the boys before he makes his start.

Well, Yashin's still on their cap

Stats-wise, he's disappeared. But it's not quite as bad as the stats would have you believe. He's been getting chances, hitting posts. Kinda one of those things where it looks like he's come out of his slump - just hasn't seen the results yet.

But in answer to your unasked question, he's still the JVR you knew and loved.

LET'S GO FLYERS!!! CLAP! ~ CLAP! ~ CLAP!CLAP!CLAP!!!

No worries. He'll bag a couple tonite.

Need to get out of a funk? Need to set a record? Need to reach a milestone? The Flyers are the team to play.

With a wired shut jaw he'll be out for a while no matter what. And he'll lose muscle mass quickly, because it's hard to get enough protein when on a liquid diet.

Immersion blender.

Once you get past the initial thought of it, grilled chicken and broccoli soup is quite good.

Oh, forgot, tonight feels like a 4-1 win. 4 goals, 4th win, today's 4/4...
- Flyskippy

That's better than Fore! Thats for sure! We've opened the door so tell me more, yes tell me more, about this core!



Yeah I'm Leight. So what?

Sounds like the Leafs the last 8 years or so... JVR has definatly slowed down, but you don't get points for screening the goalie on goals, something he has done a good job of this year.

ahh gotta love the idiots in the Canadian media

But the Flyers missed out on Bishop and Luongo and dealt Leighton, the goalie who backstopped them to the Cup Finals in 2010,

not allowed.
- hammarby31

not even if you add a laughie?

With a wired shut jaw he'll be out for a while no matter what. And he'll lose muscle mass quickly, because it's hard to get enough protein when on a liquid diet. So it may be a challenge to compete when he does come back. But his agent and the team both deny he's had any concussion symptoms. It is possible Eskin's wrong, you know.

His jaw isn't wired shut.

I actually heard some ass hat "expert" on NHL radio at lunchtime saying that Leighton is a better goalie than Mason, and "was a bona fide Stanley Cup caliber goalie". Nearly wrecked my truck laughing so hard...

maybe they should wired your jaw shut so you'll stop making bad posts, troll

Haha kudos to the jackets for prying Leighton away! In one paragraph. They dog Gaborik and applaud the rangers. In the next they laud the jackets for being able to land Gaborik!

Wouldn't amputated fingers make more sense?

Omg
Prolly the best thing Holmgren did was that bait and switch! I'm not convinced that the third wasn't added in so they'd take Leighton off our hands. They did immediately trade for a goalie from the Penguins.
Have a nice life Leighton. I'm cool with riding the Tiger.
