Heres a question I could use help with... My wife said if I read fifty shades of grey I can do 2 things to her that are in the book of my choicE. Should I read the ultimate chick book or not and how gay am I if do or do I get a pass because of my wifes offer?

My counter offer would be let me get a list of all the things done in the book and pick or I do what you ask and in addition we get to rein act all my favorite porn movie.

Not even gonna get into how what you wanna do behind closed doors should not hinge on performing such a humiliating act because that's just marriage

No doubt he's maddeningly inconsistent. Again tho like you said there's more pressing needs.
- JoeRussomanno


I wouldn't be amazed if we see a Mason/Emery tandem next season. But I also wouldn't be amazed if Bryz and Mason handle the job, either.

And yet Reimer looked solid as a rock, right?

Bryz will NOT be bought out this summer, they will try to trade him away for some low picks either in the summer or before next years trade deadline, if that fails he will get bought out in summer of 14. Brierre has played his last game as a Flyer.
- ICUBB



If teams arent taking Lu because of his contract, they definitely arent taking Bryz for picks. That said, I dont think hes cut this summer, but most likely next.

more pressing needs then Bryz. They are going to sign Mason for about 2m and go into next year with both of them. Then if Bryz poops the bed, he will be bought out in the summer of 2014.
Danny Boy 96%

that's my opinion...
If Bryz holds the fort I would look to get rid of Mez but he's hurt...it appears as though he's made of glass these days.
With him and Danny boy...that's 10mil cut from the cap.

Could always put mez waivers or did the new CBA (frank) that up?

Is your avatar picture actually that of Trent Klatt or is that some kid going to a Smiths concert circa 1986?

I'd be fine with it but they gotta fix the blueline first. Kimo is on borrowed time.

There will not be much of a run if they keep giving up over 3 goals per game(Last three games).
The key to recent wins is scoring five goals per game.

- strongsupporter


I kinda have to agree with this. We've only been winning because we've been scoring. Next game without a huge score tally and we lose. Although if we do make the play-offs it'll be against Pittsbugh which means that'd give us a shot... They can't play D either...

You seem overly worried about being gay.

Part of the factor with Luongo is that the Canucks are just giving him away. They want another team to trade valuable assets and take that contract, as well.

She assumes you can read? Huh, we don't.
And read the dang book.... I haven't but at the least it will give you something entertaining to embarass her with and she gets to tell all her friends that you did page 72 to her....

If reading a book makes you gay, real good chance you were prior to reading the book.

Mez could very easily fetch something in a trade, decent cap hit last year of deal and no NTC.

Books don't make people gay. Buy the audio book so you don't have to read it.

Furthermore, the fact that your wife read this book, which is essentially chick porn, means you can no longer catch flak for looking at porn on the internet.

Win- Win

GooD point. I might just try to use that.

I was thinking worst case scenario. I'd rather the guy just get healthy and back to where he was two years ago.

I don't get all the bryz talk. I've got no problem getting mason in here for a look. Bryz is playing up to that contract. That is the going rate for a starting UFA goalie who logs a ton of games and has kept a poop show team in playoffs reach for a couple months now

Kimmo will be here next year, at least. They do still need to add another defenseman to the top 4, even with Timonen.

Trade offer for one and offer sheet for the other. LA being Flyers West would be the likely trade offer and Shattenkirk might be only had for trade also.

Both are cornerstones, Shattenkirk more so, and will require us giving up major pieces but I'm fine with that.

Edit: I don't think LA wants to pay Bernier more than $3M a year consdering Quick's cap hit and term so he might be the candidate for the offer sheet. Trade for Shatt.

- phillydentist



How much are the Flyers going to pay for Bernier? And should the Flyers be concerned about paying a lot of money to an unproven goaltender? What are you going to give St. Louis for Shattenkirk?

That is true, but do you really think that a team would take on Bryz's contract until 2020? Except for Toronto... they actually might do something dumb like that

This. I know its more of an overall system thats working for them now, but at times I thought Coburn played like the 7th or 8th defenseman on this team.

I remember him having a start like that in the 09-10 season, but then he came back around and finished strong. This year, no. Let's hope a full season with actual practice time turns a lot of players around next year.
