Ahhh Morin lost didn't take the man out in front of the net, puck goes through his feet to another player who scores.

unless another trade is made, yup. I like that 4th line better than what they had been using as Raffl gives it at least one guy with some decent skill and while Hall is not as good on the pk as Talbot, at least he's good on faceoffs.

After 2

Rimouski - 1
Chicoutimi - 2

No points for Morin.

never had any respect for him before, and i know talk is cheap, but it sounds like he has a good attitude. im all for giving people second chances to reform their ways. hopefully he is a good citizen for you guys

No points and got Coburned for a goal? Not good

There are things I like about this trade and things I don't. At this point I don't really care who gets traded as along as this team gets better.

I agree with this. Potential negatives and positives to the deal. Have to see how it plays out.

Had to watch a replay of it, looks like he did enough of the player and the puck slide across the crease.

i think only a dog could decipher the homer mumblefest discussing the trade though

All the people upset about this trade..

what realistic better deal is there to make?

The average Flyers fan I talk to in South Philly right now says the following to me

1. Why can't they trade for a number 1 dman?
2. They need Jagr..look what he for so many years here (yes some guy said that to me)
3. Their goal tending is horrible.

I like to call this the useless 610 Hockey Fan threesome.

well, after hours of searching the internets I've come to the conclusion that the only people who don't think the Flyers got the better of this deal are a few Flyer fans posting on hockey buzz.

If Talbot was playing like he did during his 1st season with the Flyers I'd wouldn't like this trade much. He was a monster the first season here. Again bottom line if it makes the team better I'm happy.

To me it seems Hall should be in the lineup more now so he can play on the PK.

Wow, if that's the case, 90% of fans either don't watch the game or don't understand what's going on.

Final

Rimouski - 2
Chicoutimi - 3

Morin had a goal in a decent effort overall
