Its amazing how quickly the Philly fan base would turn around their thoughts. He would make Bob Clarke look like Zarley Zalapski.

It would take a bit of time, but yeah, prolly.

It took me until Christmas just to get used to the idea of Jaromir Jagr in a Flyers uniform and he played for just about every rival the Flyers had before he got to Philly.

Right now, I'm loving Guy LaFleur. From a TSN article:

- Canadiens legend Guy Lafleur didn't mince words about the performance - or lack thereof - of certain Montreal players despite the team's lengthy postseason run.

In an interview with La Presse this week, the five-time Stanley Cup champion and three-time NHL scoring leader specifically took aim at wingers Thomas Vanek and Max Pacioretty, saying they can't show up in a 7-4 win over the New York Rangers in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Final and come up empty in Game 6.

"Guys like Vanek and Pacioretty, you can't keep that on your team," he told the Montreal newspaper. "They should remain at home if they're not willing to pay the price. Your team will never win with players like that who fade when there's adversity."

Pacioretty, 25, tallied 60 points in 73 regular season games with the Canadiens, including a career-high 39 goals. He registered five goals and 11 points in 17 playoff games. Pacioretty is signed for five more seasons with a $4.5 million cap hit.

Vanek, who was acquired by the Canadiens at the trade deadline and becomes an unrestricted free agent on July 1, scored five goals and 10 points in 17 postseason games.

Shea Weber, hands down. I don't care about his age, or how many more minutes/game Ryan Suter plays, or how many oddman chances against are given up by E. Karlsson.

Shea Weber and his (probably) enormous manhood would lead the Flyers to unparalleled glory...or at least the Eastern Conference Finals.

How disappointed would you be if it wasn't?

Come on now. You know the Flyers are just dying to sign Brooks Orpik this summer. They'll be teammates again.
- bradleyc4

I hope the Pens re-sign Orpik

So, cause I'm bored, here is a question for you all.

If you could add one current player to the Flyers roster, without having to give up anything to get him, who would it be?

For me, it would be Ryan Suter

OEL or Doughty

Why don't the Habs leave him in Philly instead.

I just threw up a little.
