Very hard for Flyers to catch up to the Islanders in the short term. Snow has put together an impressive and deep talent pool.

I believe Bryzgalov is a good NHL goal tender.

Bryz's agent is kinda making it clear that he's doesnt like it here and trying to make the flyers out to be the bad guy Im pretty sure he has played his last game as a flyer and I wouldn't be suprised if he signs in the khl

My views are that they should exercise the buy out now. He hasn't played consistently well enough to justify the commitment, and with the cap recapture rules, if he retires or jumps to the KHL early, the Flyers will be facing a massive cap crunch.

In the case of Miller and especially Thomas, the play has never been an issue. Thomas put up spectacular numbers in pretty much every year of his career in Boston, and Miller's been very solid as well.

Bryzgalov does not have that to lean on. He's never taken a team to a Stanley Cup or on a deep playoff run as the starter. Thomas wasn't overly popular on his team, especially by the end of his time in Boston, but his play made it a non factor. Bryzgalov has been ripped by his Phoenix teammates, and there's been the start of that in Philly as well.

One Philly columnist, Rich Hofman, made a good point. If Bryzgalov was a free agent, should the Flyers consider re-signing him? Can't worry about what he'd do on another team, only what he would do here.

Have to do what's best for the team even if that means getting rid of Bryzgalov which is what they should do.

Please note that Glen's sources are all Philly media, not team insiders. So take his news with that grain of salt. Not saying it isn't true. Just that his info is not first hand.
