If the Flyers buy out Briere and Bryzgalov, they will have a ton of cap space. I wouldn't go nuts on any of the current UFA goalies, so there wouldn't be $6mm committed to that position, unless they swing a deal or a Luongo gets bought out.

And I'd love Luongo on a 4 year deal for $5mm or so. He's a riot, could easily be a Pronger like interview, where Bryz comes off awkward or goofy

I would be down with that.

Not many.

It would come down to what Luongo is looking for.

- stveshdy


He might decide to go to Tampa, which is closer to his wife's family than Philly. Maybe the Caps intrigue him. Maybe Toronto. If Chicago doesn't win, maybe they'd go after him.

But Vancouver's hands could easily be tied if he's still on their cap after the CBO period

Certainly, Lu will not effected by the media. I like him as a goalie, wouldn't be opposed to sign him.

if they made it work #s wise, i'd be fine with Lu. Never have been a fan, but something tells me he just wouldn't get poop on the way Bryz does.
- hammarby31


He absolutely wouldn't, because he speaks English as a first language and fully understands the games the media play.

Where did I say that Ryan was comparable to Malkin and Crosby? I don't think it's reality for the Flyers to acquire Ryan without giving up one of their young forwards, or at least giving up somebody on the current team. And I'll add again that I don't feel that the team needs a 1st line forward.
- MJL


What was the point of saying yeah and I'd like to have Crosby, Malkin and Ovechkin after talking about Ryan? Flyers could land Ryan pretty easily without trading a current forward. Price would be steep though in terms of picks. 2013 and 2014 first and Laughton and anaheim parts with Ryan with no problem. I wouldn't do it, but the 'reality' is he could be obtained without a Flyer NHL forward.

I missed the 2nd period ... judging from shots on goal the Flyers did as well.

I probably shouldn't even watch the 3rd period of Belleville/Sudbury........This is another playoff sweep.

Hartnell brought his stick down hard on the blade ... and the guy's stick broke halfway up the shaft.

tough call.

LMAO. In fainess having Leighton and Bouche and the bad start forced Lavy to over play Bryz. You'll see the same thing happen when Howard, Utley, Rollins and Young get a day off after 40 games.
