Not eaxactly a confidence/ego booster either

Nope. He played pretty well in the series against Boston. Guess they wanted another option.

clearly they do not....read for reimer?

the carle thing looks worse w/ the streit signing, but I'm not going to try to sway you there. i think most are coming around to the reality that there seems to be no plan or durable philosophy other than trying their best yr to yr.
- isaiah520

curious what teams, in your opinion, have "a plan or durable philosophy" and how you'd describe it

Can someone give me a comparable for a flyers package that would equal toronto's.

Matt read alone is better than frattin and our 2nd is higher. b/u goalies are not a big deal to acquire unless you have a leighton fixation.

I do find it odd to trade for another young high upside goalie with limited experience....when you already have one

if you heard the radio segment, you would
- isaiah520

Maybe. I just don't understand how these things get leaked.

Matt Read and a second is better then what the Leafs gave up.

Frattin= read
Scrivener=?

I hear you. Very curious move. Perhaps they have another trade in the hopper.

I'm disappointed I wanted Bernier. You just know now that we passed on making a deal he's going to turn into a stud. They better pray Mason can be the real deal. So tired of this teams terrible track record with goalies

Reimer for read

agreed
- Don'tForgetTocchet

I'm glad the Flyers didn't get too involved. It would have probably taken Read and 2014 2nd rounder. I was hoping they could scoop him up for maybe 2 second rounders. Wishful thinking

I thought the Devils were going to swoop in and land Bernier. Would have made a ton of sense for them to do so.

Our second rounder I believe would be higher then the Leafs. Matt is a better player then both those guys.

As already stated there are enough options out there....I wanted Bernier but I didnt happen so I will just sit back and speculate who else they could bring in....Only the way this really hurts if they bring bryz back

- dingo8urbaby

Definitely.

In fact....I'd rather have Read than that whole package

I would like to keep Read. I give Mason a shot, and sign a veteran backup on the cheap.

I agree, but i'm not sure of their goalie prospect situation.

Maybe the flyers just werent as in love with Bernier as reported....or they got something else cooking

I wanna know why Scrivens is going back to LA.

Why the hell would they want him? Isn't he a young and promising goalie too? Obviously not to Bernier's caliber but still....seems like a tad bit of a sideways move....

You willing to have a another 2006 year if it doesnt pan out?

The Flyers are always cooking on all cylinders during the offseason

Same.
I was joking
But it wouldnt surpriae me either

- PhillySportsGuy

They have Kinkaid. Have heard a mixed bag on him. Some view him as a legit prospect, others as a backup type.

Obviously there is something missing here....probably on the Flyers end
