That's pretty much what it's gonna take. We need dinovine intervention.

DINOVINE!!!

I do care for the simple fact this will be the third ex flyer in a row to be named Gm. I want to see them do something different. However take that away and thinking on things hextall says things we like to hear, yet again, will it come to fruition? I'm not sure what teams have confirmed they actually were trying to hire hextall other than the flyers themselves. Like I said I'll give him a chance would've loved to see him win it all as a player it be great if he can do it still as a GM.

sheros available! Fire HExtall. ohh wait...nvm

Okay. I'm just spouting off names. I know little to nothing about European hockey. All I know is that slow goons like Shea Weber will never be able to have any success on the larger rinks, right? nudge, nudge

Sochi: Karlsson / Doughty >> Weber

We also need to get rid of Berube and replace him with Oates, then remember Oates was a former Flyer and replace him with Tortarella.

The amazing thing is had the Flyers had home ice against the Rags, the stars were aligned for them to get to a Cup final even though they are far from a complete team.

No they didn't.

The Rangers will win the whole thing on the strength of their elbows and ability to run goalies in that Ranger way.


Sad to say but the rangers are emboldened now. Corey Crawford or Jonathan Quick's careers are as good as over. In fact, it would be in their best interests to lose. Otherwise its a life of eating paste through a straw for one of them.

No they didn't.

While you are right...the rest of that quote is equally puzzling.

Let's bring back Carter and Richards too. Only to punish them for winning a cup somewhere else, and have them play 4th line minutes, and then deal them at the deadline

I'm thinking Lucic had a talk with some of the Rangers, showing them the finer points of running goalies.

go rags go!

Sign Gagne to a 4-year, $16M contract, bury him in the minors, and trade Giroux for the guy they really wanted... Bobby Sanguinetti.

Well then burn in hell.

Indeed.. but will he pull a homer 6 months later and trade them all for Bouwmeister?
- JoeRussomanno

If Homer had traded a first rounder plus prospect for Bouwmeester and signed him the Flyers would be a much better position right now. He was great for St Louis this season, better than Pietrangelo, and is signed to a very reasonable deal.

There would have been no need to trade for MacDonald.

No. The Rangers will not win the Cup. It will not be acknowledged by anyone.

Lou Cheech golf now.

So, because 2 players were better than him, that proves that he was bad?

Well then burn in hell.

Actually, they could have come up with a package beating Leopold and a 3rd, I'd think.
