I hope Ghost plays amazing and makes the team
Kids already 20 years old.

Paul Holgren ruins this team finacially and takes a team that went to the cup finals just 3 years ago to a team that can barely make the playoffs and what happens? He gets a promotion. He should have beenf fired and be forced to pay these ridiculous contracts out of his own pocket.

He is also the guy who put that team together but, you know, who cares about that. The worse thing Holmer did was not pat Pronger on ass for a good play, causing Pronger to crack like Ray Finkle, quit the game and become a post- Op Tranny

From his profile

FAVORITES:

NHL team: Pittsburgh Penguins
NHL player: Sidney Crosby
Shootout move: “High glove”
Goal celebration: “One knee, scrape the ice with hand”

Guess he felt a bit of shame and blush when he was announced as the Flyers pick

He's not making the team........Sorry.

He'll be with the Phantoms all year. He's not ready.

Are their contacts the going rate for UFA's of their ilk this cap year or would it take draft picks/and /or salary retention ( ARRGHHHH) to get people to eat their salary and give the Flyers a bag of used pucks back just to make it legal

The #Sabres confirm compliance buyout on Christian Ehrhoff.

Flyers should trade every D man they have and Coburn twice! We can convince other teams to take them by ensure we get rid of all our stupid 2015 draft picks.

It was updated on Capgeek earlier today. If they can pull off the VL/Grossman and 2016 2nd round pick for Nemeth, Ehrhoff because a real possibility.

A lot more interested in trying to acquire Bogosian, Josi, or to a lesser degree Yandle. If the rumors about trying to acquire #1 overall are true, Hexy seems content to elevate Coots #2 center and move B. Schenn in the right situation.

I would rather Hexy try to acquire those guys then spending time getting into a bidding war for CE or that other guy Ehrhoff.

Sheesh, what a bunch of Debbie downers. Am I the only one with faith? The Flyers aren't in hell because of the Lecavalier situation. He wasn't terrible last year. Hopefully he's hearing all this criticism and will use it as motivation. I think he can still be pretty effective. It won't be the end of the world to see him play with Schenn and Simmonds again. There's a pretty big hole on the top line left wing right now, but since when have the Flyers just shrugged their shoulders, said oh well and stood pat when they have a need? They're not going to sit there with their hands in their pockets on Tuesday. Sooner or later, the Flyers will get their guy. They might not get Vanek or Moulson and I don't even want them to. But they will sign or trade somebody next week. Since when do the Flyers stand pat on these kind of things? Uh, never. They're not going to be in a situation where they find themselves weak and nothing to do about it. There's always a plan. Did Holmgren make some mistakes? Absolutely. Did he "destroy the team", or "put us in cap hell"? I don't believe so. They have a pretty solid core and a bright future in my opinion. The core of Giroux, Voracek, B Schenn, Simmonds, Couturier and Read is a solid one that's only getting better. Hopefully all of them are staying here for a while too. Mason is the best goalie they've had in a long time also. He has the ability to be a great goalie for many, many years. I think their biggest problem is every one of their defensemen is overpaid. That's something that does concern me, but not to the point where I'm panicking and thinking next year might be a wash. No no no. Berube won't let that happen. I know this is a site where we discuss rumors and player movement and things like that, but remember the Flyers lost to the Rangers by one goal in game 7 just a few weeks ago. They barely lost to a team that made it to the finals and I think the Flyers would have put up a much better fight in the finals against L.A. The only thing that's happened since then is they traded a slow/aging Hartnell for Umberger. I don't think that move sets them back that far either. The Flyers have a good, promising young team that's only getting better, (hopefully). And with Hextall and Berube manning the ship, (which I love btw) the Flyers will one again be competitive and have a shot at it all like they do every year. Go Flyers.

FWIW, I don't hate MacDonald. I hate his contract & the haste at which the Flyers signed him to it. Guys like Ehrhoff become available and then you have no room to go after them.

Yes, MacDonald was fairly solid after coming over. But he was far from great. Don't like the term 4/5? Fine he's a middle of the road defenseman who can play on a second pair or anchor a third pair. He's got decent mobility, is ok with the puck and a solid defender. He could be better in the neutral zone, but he's still a NHL player.

But a guy like Ehrhoff is a top pair guy. Being able to add him would really solidify the defense and really allow time for the kids to develop.

Can Flyers sign him now since he's bought out ?

Nicolas Aube-Kubel needs a nickname asap.
