Good lord, I don't think anyone could look more douchey than this moron. The worst part is that his look is totally manufactured. They turn him IN TO this!!

Carcillo needs to give him a McSorley to the side of the head Brashear style.

Horrible. And without a new Blog from Bill this am yet, this disaster-pic gets reposted

If you could have Gagne at $1.5M/2 years or Jagr at $3M for one year, who would you take? Keep in mind how much your captain who just a signed an 8-year extension has been vouching to bring Jagr back.

gagne

Flyers already have multiple in-house options for 3rd line winger (assuming Couturier/Read are the other two on the line): Talbot, McGinn, Laughton

i'd like at least one person out of high school on the third line

Jagr. Tough question though.

It's a good thing high schoolers can't be sent to the phantoms they'd be fall asleep bored

Adding to the douche-ness, who let him get away with this?

Nah it's easy, gagne. Despite what's reported jagr is not at all a fine wine

Jagr at 3 million on this current roster minus Meszaros would leave just 600k in cap space. Not enough cap room for call-ups without LTIR Pronger. Also meaning you will have less to spend at TDL. My vote is for Gagne at 2 million, 1.5 if you can get him, but I would be fine with 2.

Also Gagne isn't going to make demands for top line minutes. Jagr comes in wanting top 2 pairings and it will jumble up the lines too much IMO.

Gagne-Couturier-Read is a great checking line that can pop 50 goals between them IMO.

IIRC, didn't it come out fairly recently that there was a plot that was foiled in which some thugs were going to kidnap Bieber and castrate him? Quite unfortunate this plan was thwarted.

Regarding Gagne, I think there is a gentleman's agreement in place where the Flyers brass told Gagne to sit tight while they figure out how to clear some cap space. While I'm sure teams aren't exactly beating his door down, he is still a useful player that can help a good team. I believe he will be back.

How do you know it was Thwarted. Maybe the second his voice started to crack his manager spread this false rumor, and had him snipped. Cant stop that cash cow.

Per Andy Strickland....

Looks like Chris Stewart will file for Arbitration. Pietrangelo will possibly go the PK Subban contract route.

Flyers had the same deal in place with Matt Carle. Didn't turn out well.

What, get paid pennies for the dollar? If this is the case, its too bad we dont have the cap space, because I would offer him 1 year, max contract STL just couldnt match, then next year negotiate a more fair deal.

Have to give the Biebs credit. He's a World Champion. Surrounds himself with winners.

Is that one of those temporary tattoos on his 24" python?

The sad thing is this society has made him rich beyond his wildest dreams. Tragic

Jagr. Tough question though.
- moylander

I'll take Gagne. He's going to want less money and is more likely to be able to compete after an 80 game schedule.

Jagr couldn't hold up after a 48 game schedule. I like the guy now but wow was he on fumes in the playoffs for Boston this season. I thought they did okay picking him up because of the shortened season but he was done. He was full step slower at least.

- jak521

That was the point.

Nobody even steps on the logo in the dressing room, yet this schmuck can plant himself on it? I'll bet that if the team was present, he would have needed a wheelchair to perform his concert later that night.
